This song.
This song that was playing..
It was familiar.
I remember the feeling that came with it.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He had brought me to a nearby cafe after dinner.
It was quite... secluded. In the quiet part of town.
It was pleasant. And relaxing.
'Im not sure if you like this kind of place.'
'I love it.' I assured him.
It was just my kind of place. A nice one to unwind.
We ordered a chocolate dessert to share.
It wasnt that fancy to me.
But I didnt care.
Not when I was with him.
We talked.
He told me he was taking up Korean language.
After all, he was part Korean. (He refused to admit it)
'My grandma stays in Korea.'
'Oh.. so you're part Korean.'
'Uhh. I guess? I don't think it matters.' he said
'Haha, I guess not.'
He brought a vocab book to show me. We started going through it. And he asked me to pronounce some words/phrases. I tried my best. And it always ended up sounding more Japanese HAHAHA. We laughed hard at ourselves. Especially at my attempts. It felt good.. This moment. Then this song played, and I just had to Shazam it. I instantly felt connected in the moment.
The Other.
After dessert we decided to go for a stroll.
We walked to City Hall. Over there he treated me to Gongcha. Apparently he had a birthday offer and it was on the house. I tried to poke my straw in my drink and... my straw broke. HAHAHA. I swear these things only happen to me. We went back to take another.
We walked to the Esplanade. Went around to see some performances. It was surprisingly crowded there. We walked by Marina Bay. Reminiscing our POP days. Good o'l times. And then, he walked me back to the train station.
That night I was happy.
I was...
...
Until we parted ways.
Who wrote the book on goodbye?
It never should exist.
Love, Eran.
Current Song Mood: Lauv - The Other
Like a spotlight the water hits me
Ran it extra cold to shake the words from my mouth
Though I know that no one's listening
I nervously rehearse for when you're around
And I keep waiting like you might change my mind
Who wrote the book on goodbye?
There's never been a way to make this easy
When there's nothing quite wrong but it don't feel right
Either your head or your heart, you set the other on fire
Back and forth now I'm feelin' guilty
Cause I just can't stop this pendulum in my head
Though I know that our time is ending
I'd rather lay forever right in this bed
And I keep waiting like, you might change my mind
Give me one more night
Who wrote the book on goodbye?
There's never been a way to make this easy
When there's nothing quite wrong but it don't feel right
Either your head or your heart, you set the other on fire
No one knows (knows)
No one knows (knows)
We fell from the peak
And the stars, they broke their code
I'm trying to forget
How I landed on this road
I'm caught in between
What I wish and what I know
When they say that you just know
Who wrote the book on goodbye?
There's never been a way to make this easy
When there's nothing quite wrong but it don't feel right
Either your head or your heart, you set the other on fire
No one knows (knows)
No one knows (knows)
No one knows (knows)
You set the other on fire
You set the other on fire
Ran it extra cold to shake the words from my mouth
Though I know that no one's listening
I nervously rehearse for when you're around
And I keep waiting like you might change my mind
