Because hidden feelings increase and mental pressure is unstoppable, my lips unconsciously speak for themselves. Explosion of conscience. I myself was surprised how all this had happened without my previous plan. Although I must admit that all of that is true. I closed my mouth tightly with my palm at that moment. But all that has happened. The words came out of my lips like an unbearable bullet.

He just smiled, then looked at me deeply. I turned my gaze to the sky. The sky is getting red. It is as if the sky, trees, and concrete walls have witnessed the soul's upheaval between you and me.
"Yes, of course."
His words irritated me, which meant my expression was harsh. The expression on his face really bothered me. Maybe if it wasn't him, I'd slap his handsome face.
My soul is mixed with annoyance at the answers which gave rise to many of these interpretations.
He looked at me and smiled. I gathered all my patience. I returned his smile sweetly even though I didn't know the meaning of his smile. Even when he held my hand, I let him. Although I did not return his grasp. I let it be. I want to know where is the smile and the grip of his hand?
Occasionally I looked at the sky. The sky is red like fire in my soul. I saw afternoon birds fly back to their nests. But you and I are still here for no apparent reason. At that moment, I felt something softer than the wind blowing from the green leaves, the smile and grip of his hands.
"We will always be like this. Believe me!"
Ah damn, it looks like he managed to find the anxiety that I tried to hide all this time.
I just kept quiet, staring at the sunset. For a few moments enjoying the silence created by the universe. Peaceful night. Feel the calming breeze.
"Yes! Maybe I just think of you as a younger sister. I know, putting you in a position without clarity like this is very uncomfortable. I can't explain my reasons. But believe me, even without ties, you are still someone interesting to visit. Believe me!"
I only paused to digest his words. I suppress all my emotions. I hear all the chat.
"Love doesn't need to be announced. Sometimes time doesn't have to be spent together. Sometimes loneliness is the right time to be able to understand each other in silence. Everything needs limits, until finally we understand the true meaning of love."
I was stunned. I am silent for a thousand languages. Only tears fell one by one framing my cheek.
He held my hand back, which meant strengthening his grip. Ah, I can't hide it, I can feel something warm flowing in my soul. I know, grip is to strengthen one another, clutches try to limit dreams that want to have freedom from each other, but are aware of boundaries. He wiped my tears with his soft palms. He kissed my forehead sincerely. I let it be. Because I need certainty.
Until finally I realized, your departure is no longer something that I must regret, but it is a new thing that I must believe.
From then on, he was no longer something I hated, but this was an event that I had to appreciate to understand.
Since then, love is no longer seen in waiting, but how much we hold on to one heart even though one day you cannot have it.
Since then, the sky has become redder as a witness of two hearts adrift of crazy love.
