Did You Know?
He didn’t say you’re irresistible. He said, “You make time feel like it’s asking permission to keep going.”
He didn’t flirt with compliments. He flirted with memory — recalling things you’d said in passing, mentioning your favorite time of day, asking how that meeting went on Thursday. That’s the kind of seduction that leaves you haunted.
You said “I don’t know what this is.” He said, “It’s not nothing. And that’s already a start.”
You thought he left. But then he liked your story at 2:13 AM. That’s how he checks in — not with words, but with presence. Just enough to remind you he still exists inside your chest.
He didn’t pressure you to smile. He just said, “Let me sit with you until the tension softens.”
If he plays SZA and lights candles before you even sit down, just know: it’s not chill.
He didn’t try to impress you. He just asked how you take your tea. And the next night, he made it on camera. Steeped the water. Held the cup to his lips. Said, “Feels like you’re already here.”
You asked what he wanted from this. He said, “One moment a day where I know I made you feel wanted.”
