You loved your boyfriend dearly. Even though he struggles expressing his emotions, you praise his effort. He struggled with his mental and often wished that he wasn't the way who he was. He wanted to be someone who deserved your warm embrace and love. No. Not by an emotionless person like him.

.....

One afternoon, he was suddenly a bit too.. energetic? Far is too unrealistic for his usual personality. He started smiling a lot and laughing. He even did the chores. You thought that maybe something good happened, so you didn't ask further questions and just embraced this new, enthusiastic personality of his.

"I don't know how to play the guitar."

What?

You asked him to play his song. It has been a while since he last picked up the guitar, and you wanted him to play it. He loved the guitar. In fact, he used to be in a band back then in his junior high.

So what did he mean by that-

"I really don't know, babe. What are you talking about?"

He chuckled.

This doesn't feel right. The usual Cole would pick the guitar up and strum right away, but... Was this.. even Cole?
