Romans & histoires So Close But Yet So Far

so close? ********

Just not yet. ***

It was so close to me yet so far away at the same time. I never wanted this to end. I wanted him to be mine.

Just there. Close enough to touch.

“You’re beginning to get closer than I expected.” “But not close enough.”

The distance felt like the vast sea between you and me, so near yet so far from each other. All Hearts !

Lips still not touched. But nearly. Far, far too nearly.

Her eyeballs are about to fall from its sockets when she saw Cairo from my room. “What the-” “Catch ‘ya later, Eunice!” I screamed and rushed through the staircase. I heard her call me but I didn’t bother to look at her. Even if I try explaining my side, she’s gonna think that Cairo and I has something intimate. Well, she’s not wrong on that matter. But that was before. If I am going to rate how close Cairo and I right now, it would be a two over ten. Given that he’s beside me and keeping up with my pace is enough to make it a point higher.

Maybe I pushed too hard. Maybe I’ve gone too far.

Despite our differences, despite some moments where we saw each other thinking differently, we always found a way to be okay, and she has been a pillar for me. Because of her I have been able to face many things of fate and today I realize that you value that person more when you are not close to them, so you miss them more. I was once far away from her, now she sees more distance between us again and how she tells me she feels the gap. It's like a snake leaving its venom on the skin, the wound hurts and deepens like the pain I feel when I feel and touch the distance from it, although I try to resist and not see myself completely thrown into perdition. It's hard. Who said it would be easy?
