Different. They were so different from each other. It was hard to accept. Hard to deal with.
On one side... He was charming... Carefree... The man she had fallen in love with so many years ago...
Yet he was dark... Mysterious... And she found herself torn.
Maybe this was how it was supposed to be, maybe... She was supposed to be torn. Between the yin and the yang.
Yet, even as she was tormented, caught between the light and the dark, more often than not... She found herself looking towards the light. She found the smile that played at her lips, and she found a sugary giggle escape her throat.
If and maybe.
The dark... It was an if... It was a maybe...
The light... It was an always... It was... A guarantee.
And as she had come to the realizations... She found her feet already running towards him. Towards the one she wanted.
She found herself searching for him every day, every second.
And she found him giving her a friendly smile that sent her heart fluttering.
Yes... He was the light... And she was an optimist.
