Chapter 1/8
There you are again. Smiling and laughing, you're in the middle of all your friends, the center of attention. Your eyes light up again when you hear something funny and you laugh, your laugh that contains a smile and just like before they erupt in laughter as well, your laugh has become contagious. But I notice something they don't, you've changed, you're not the same guy you were before. What used to bring you happiness and joy doesn't anymore. I can see it, when the laughter dies and the unimportant conversations begin, your eyes focus on everything and anything that isn't them. They don't seem to notice though; they're too involved into each other and themselves.
I walk pass you, pretending to be playing with my hair, my head down and my eyes focused on the ground. I look up and for a second our eyes lock. We both smile before we both turn away, going back to what we were doing before and pretending like we don't know one another.
It's an unspoken connection, code between us that no one knows or would ever understand. Our eyes speak for us, letting out our happiness, our sorrow and our pain. It's as if for a moment in time, everything around us has stopped and disappeared and you and I are the only ones left.
For that moment, you and I are connected. In that moment, I am happy and so are you. Another day has gone by and soon the day will come when we will be connected forever. And when that day comes, you and I will be ready.
