As long as it takes, she'll wait.

One second, one week, one year – time and place don't matter, and the distance will never sever the love that she contains for him.

She can blink and see butterflies flutter in the air, can blink and watch cats prowl around her.

Time can pass her by, and she won't care.

Because one day, she'll open her eyes, to reveal him standing before her all along, hands in his pockets, waiting for her join him.

And she'll smirk, tease him gently and he'll rebuke her, sharing an identical grin. Somewhere along the way, the distance lessens until there is none.

He'll wait, as long as it takes.
