after everything that’s happened, nothing feels certain anymore. every path, every choice, feels new && unknown. in a way it is. the world, like nothing you can recall, not from your lifetime. it’s hard to plan for the future, when mere weeks ago, you weren’t even sure you HAD a future.
all you know, the ONLY thing you are absolutely sure of, is that whatever your life looks like moving forward, you want eda in it.
" are you... sure that getting back together is the best option? i'm not sure about this. " eda admittedly feels concerned, though she knows deep down that she still loves raine. " it's been too long; i'm worried that things will get bad again, rainshower. " ( @snowfeathered )
you understand her concern, you do. it HAS been a long time. you’re very different people than you were twenty years ago / ( twenty years ago, when you broke her heart — but she’d broken yours too ) / but you’ve lost too much time. you’re old now, both of you. && you refuse to let any more years slip away.
“can we just... take it one day at a time, then?” you step closer to her, cupping one side of her face in your palm, && brushing the knuckles of your opposite hand over her other cheek. “i let you go once... i almost LOST you... i can’t do that again.”
