Novel & Cerita It's Like I've Waited My Whole Life

"I've been sure since I was five years old, standing behind my parents, watching you. "I've waited twenty-three years for you. And I don't wanna wait any longer." My eyes burned, vision blurring with tears. All that time I was chasing Bailey, there'd been someone else, standing quietly behind me, loving me even longer. I nodded hard. "Okay."

Not while my entire life was burning to the ground. The next morning, weak sunlight snuck through the gaps in the hotel curtains. I sat cross-legged on the bed, my eyes burning as I stared at my phone. I watched it like it might explode if I looked away for even a second. Waiting. It felt like my entire life was just one long, painful wait now. The clock flipped from ten seventeen to ten twenty-three, and then to ten twenty-seven. Every single minute that ticked by felt like it was mocking me personally.

“I’ve waited my whole life for you to care about my life. I’ve waited twenty years for this day. You’re not meddling at all! And if you insist on calling it that, then I hope you’ll meddle even more—the more, the better!” ***

Oh, you can fit me Inside the necklace you got when you were sixteen Next to your heartbeat where I should be

We love you. I hold the page close to my chest and take a few steadying breaths. I can hardly wait. It feels like the world all around me is still spinning while I'm rooted to the spot, waiting for my turn to rejoin the rest of them. Some days it feels like I'll never leave this damned place. But I know that can't be true. Nothing lasts forever, not good moments or bad ones. This I've experienced firsthand.

I hated the thought of anyone else getting close to her, of her slipping out of my grasp. But I was a patient man. And I would wait. I had waited my whole life for something like this, and I wasn’t about to let her go now.

He looked genuinely stunned, like this possibility had never occurred to him. "I've spent an entire year waiting," I continued, my voice steady and calm despite the emotion behind the words. "Waiting for you to treat me like I matter. Waiting for you to touch me like you actually want me instead of like it's a chore. Waiting for you to look at me the way you look at literally every other woman who crosses your path—with interest, with desire, with something. Waiting for any sign that I'm more than just convenient. That I'm more than just someone to fill space in your life until something better comes along." "Lia, that's not—"

“I can do that. Send me the invitation.” I hung up and looked out the window again. This city bowed at my feet. The whole world was waiting to be conquered. Five years of pain and waiting, all for this. It was worth it.
