You said “I don’t want to hope again.” He said, “Then just rest. I’ll hold the hope for now.”
You said you’re afraid of being forgotten. He said, “Then I’ll remind you of yourself every time you start fading.”
He didn’t ask for your fire. He asked, “Where does the flame start, and what do I need to do to be gentle with it?”
The lighting in his room was awful. But it didn’t matter. He looked like someone who knew how to turn silence into safety. And in that grainy call, you saw more truth in his posture than you’d seen in entire relationships.
You told him you’ve learned to leave before being left. He said, “Then maybe this time, we both stay a little longer than we’re used to.”
You told him you hate starting over. He said, “Then let’s just continue — from wherever your heart left off last time.”
You said, “I don’t know how to flirt anymore.” He said, “Then let your comfort be the signal. I’ll read that better than words.”
He asked “Do you want me to stay on the line until you fall asleep?” You didn’t say yes. But you left the call open.
