I stood two steps behind him. I'm facing his back, silently begging him in my mind to face me. Thinking all the moments whenever he defy my principles, and proving me wrong all the time.

I hated it.

I hated him, but now...

He currently challenges my notion of love. Uprooting misconceptions, blade by blade.

"You know, I will say this because it might be our last conversation." I puff a sigh firming my voice.

"You know what is my stand with love. Love to me is a ferocious beast, ready to crush fallen victims under its heels. Love is an infectious plague. The symptoms of love are pain, tears, fears, and heartaches." I confess. Starting to get anxious about the topic. 

Rationally, I know now that is wrong.

I know now that...

But.

I can't simply erase years of trauma overnight.

"Thus, you're a burning stove right now," my voice sake a little, a little sad about what I said. I look at my hands and continued talking.

"You touch a stove once, you get burned. You learn to stay away right?" chuckling a little bit without humor. 

"Love to me is like a burning stove. I learned nothing but pain from love." I sighed. Maybe this is really a farewell after all.

"Then there you are rudely helping me out of that crowd, into this dying world, with your puppy eyes and stupid romantic ideologies," I spoke the words with bittersweet.

"You speak a new love language that I don't understand. You are dark and uncharted territory to be explored. You make me want to throw my hand on the stove." I stifle a sob. I want to hug him like he always does. Beg him to stay.

Believe me, I want to...

I really want to.

But.

I am afraid.

Because I know, with him beside me. I will be a hindrance to his success. And I will never forgive myself if my love for him will be the reason for his downfall.
