Red Strings

One Glance.

He glanced at me.

With that, he took my heart. I could feel everything going away with just his look. Alas, it was a brief moment yet I crave for more.

How could I have his stare when all he knows I'm just a friend to this day?

His laughter. His smile. His touch. It's all I could think of.

Whenever he makes his jokes, I show him that I get irritated. But I'm trying my best to hide my smile. Even if it's just a crack, I shouldn't show him.

I need to conceal all my feelings or else everything will fall to pieces.

I asked myself everyday, "Why him?"

But I get my answers in one glance.

I glanced at him.

With that, he took my breath away. My emotions were in roller coaster when I saw him. If I look again, will it be weird? The urge to give all my attention to him is getting stronger.

How can I gaze at him when our label is just friends?

His presence. His fragrance. His kindness. It's stuck in my head.

Whenever I make my jokes, I want him to smile. But all I saw was annoyance, did I do something wrong? Even if it's a hint of joy would mean the world to me.

Maybe he isn't interested. Hiding my emotions would be the best before I embarrass myself. I don't want to ruin our friendship.

My thoughts were running with questions of "Should I continue?"

But one glance at him, I get my answer.
