Aden was your ex that had treated you so sweetly and caringly. He was like the perfect man, that every woman had wished for. It seemed impossible if women or even just a woman didn't like this man. You missed how sweet, caring, concerning, loving, and clingy he was to you. You both lost in touch after breaking up.
You were in your living room with your friends, haning out, just laughing together, gossiping.
Everyone had agreed on watching a horror movie, and as the movie started, one of ypur friends told you to grab some snacks. You grabbed your phone along with you and went to the kitchen.
You were preparing for the snacks, when suddenly a notification popped up on your phone, 3 new messages. It was an unknown number. You opened the notification and it was Aden.
It said, "Hey, it's me, Aden."
And the second one said, "How r u?"
And the last one, "Wyd?"
You missed him, so of course, you replied to him and his questions. Every since that day, both of you had been texting each other as.. friends. And he told you he had broken up with her girlfriend, Denise.
As days went by, you started to develop feelings for him, but you didn't know about his. After thinking about it, you confessed, in text, of course.
Ding! A new reply.
"I'm sorry. I'm not ready for us, I just got out of a relationship."
You felt hurt, but respected his decision. A few days later, you were scrolling on Tiktok and you saw his account. You checked his account and looked at his reposts, and his latest repost said,
"maybe i moved on but, i still remember your birthday, i still remember your photos in my gallery, i still remember how our conversations started, and my heart still skips a beat when i hear ur name"
And it hurt. It was obvious it was about Denise. So, you told him to meet you in the park.
You went, and you saw him waiting there. You sat next to him, but uneasily kept a distance. You went straight to the point, "Do you miss Denise?" You asked.
He stared at you quietly, but spoke up. "Honestly, yeah."
