8: eyelid kiss
the space between them is small, a width of silence that fills the sheets draped over their lower half. here, sen lies beside tai, faces tai, and tai does the same. it’s always been dinners served with awkward conversations between the two of them, but tonight, there is only comfort shared through audible inhales and exhales, unfaltering gazes, a smile. sen draws in the solace that has been offered to her for months now, only acknowledging it tonight. perhaps, this is all that she needs. tonight.
“do you hear that?” she whispers.“the rain?”“i love it. tai, well, does setsuna love it too? i’d like to think we – i – still love the things i loved back then.”his eyes speak. she talks.“but i can’t be sure, you know. i wonder just how many people i’ve loved and have forgotten. it sucks because it’s the memories that have a say on what i’ve felt. and i’ve lost them.”“you haven’t lost me, setsu.”
a pause. there is barely any space between them now, toned arm draped around her waist, the length of one’s hand repetitively smoothing the creases over her spine as if it could flatten out the ridges of her present. but sen lives in this moment, believes that sleeping to the circles being traced all over her back can somehow deface a mountain that she has been climbing since she got back in sunhwa. he stops, thumb now caressing the softness of her cheek.
“keep on doing that, tai.”“doing what?”she hums, tone somnolent against her following words. “back. the thing you were doing to my back.”he listens. he complies.
the last of the many pauses, prolonged silences. sen isn’t looking at him anymore. her eyes are closed, and she wonders if his are, too. it has been two minutes since they entertained the call to sleep, two minutes to take her to check if he has given in to the indiscernible voice of slumber. his eyes have been closed, but she doesn’t wonder how long it has been, only lets her palm gently rest against his cheek, leaning in. it’s a goodnight kiss on his eyelid, a long one.
tonight is all that she needs. he doesn’t need to remember it tomorrow.
