Rumour has it

so I heard he bought a house in the city I do not want to live in. The house he's been wanting to buy for the past years, the one I've been delaying since I do not want to spend the rest of my life in that city. 
The  place where he tried convincing me to go to Grad school, the place where he'de research on how I can get licence and work there. 
I wonder who's gonna the lucky girl who'll get to be under the same roof as he is. I bet she doesn't leave wet towels on the floor which he always complained I did. I bet she doesn't leave dirty laundry around the house after he's already done doing laundry for the day. 

She's probably so perfect that her feet are always warm and she doesn't even have  to shove it under his shirt to have it warm it up.
Heck! She's probably so amazing that she doesn't even demand attention while he's working or playing fortnite with Matt... She might even be older, more mature, confident, so smart and successful that she's not intimidated by his colleagues and infact fit right in and gets along with them just fine. Maybe she even love their posh sunday brunch parties unlike me! 
They're probably so perfect and noone would even question their relationship as the way they did ours.

Irreconcilable Love

Never been one to have wondering eyes. Been too focused on navigating life and building myself up that I forget to derive pleasure off casual flirty interactions.  No, I do not deny the attractiveness of the beautiful people around me. They sure are a pleasure to the eye. But like the saying "out of sight, out of mind"  I tend to appreciate them as part of God's creation. I acknowledge their beauty but swiftly return my attention to the self-centered trajectory of my own ambitions and the life I aim to achieve. Been so emotionally closed off while aching for a shoulder to lean on, someone to deeply connect to. Then there you were, showering me with promises, security that you won't do me wrong as I slowly let my guard down giving you the trust I haven't had the ability to instill on anyone else. I am not denying your claim that you did treated me well... atleast on the initial stages when you were overwhelmed by your infatuations. You worshipped me, treated me in ...

the inbetweeners

I stumbled upon an ad that caught my eye today, it wasn't the skincare product that made me stop and stare but rather the model advertising the product. I wondered for a second why this pretty woman looks so familiar until I realised it's the woman you've been seeing the past years since the last time we spoke.  The thought of you hardly crossed my mind anymore, like I am sure I barely ever cross your mind. But today I looked back down the memory lane of us and I tried to pin point exactly where we grew apart. Was it the last time I flew by that city, made you wait for 2 hours in the dinner reservation you booked and I left the bouquet of flowers you brought in my hotel to die? or was it that time you sent my mom bouquet but I switched off my phone when you called and the delivery had to leave it outside just for it to be stolen? or was it that time you sent a note with chocolate and flowers in college and I had my ex pick it up for me? or was it that time I drunk text you ...
Now you paint me as the villain, the emotionally unavailable, demanding and entitled controlling woman.  You apologised. You thought I looked like an angel, so charming inside and out. You wanted to be the one to get the girl that was so unavailable for every other men. You loved the chase. But loving me was harder than you initially anticipated.You promised me a lifeline for a lifetime, said there never was any other girl and never will. I fell for that tempting false sense of security. Security - the very comfort, steadiness, assurance I chase...  You decided to use them all against me. you gave me all, then took it all away. You don't want to be the bad guy so you shift blame... told me I took too long to trust that you gave up, I was letting my guard up for too long, then I was too attached, too emotional dependent on you, had no life outside of being with you, you were tired of being my backbone, the only person I get close to. I was exhausting to you.  You didn't wa...
