Lie
It doesn't seem like such a big deal now, I can't believe how bad I felt when I said it back then. It's strange really, how something so wrong can grow out to come so natural, whether you want it to happen or not. Yet watching this picture of that time when it happened forces me to remember that moment of decision exactly still.
In a way, I guess, you can compare it to children growing up. You know the moment you start it that they will grow up and eventually lead a life of their own, yet you refuse to give them up until they turn against you for loving them too much. Though this was not about children, far from it even, it still ended up throwing everything back at me.
It began with that one thing I told myself I would never do, that one lie. God, it sounds so frivol now that I've lost everything we once had together. And all because I told him yes, he looked good in green.
A lie.
Just one lie.
Just one lie, to be followed by hundreds more.
I'm sorry, Wufei, but you really don't look good in green.
