April 12

I saw my old boyfriend today.

It was bound to happen. We not only live two buildings away from each other, we even share a single road. Every morning he goes to work walking across the same path where, every morning, my car picks me up. So it was bound to happen.

All the same, I didn't expect to find myself today looking at him, all of him, a mere foot away. He was just...there, still so painfully familiar. I recognized the shirt I gave him for his birthday, those smelly sneakers I hated so much, that adorable slight frown demanding for strong coffee.

My eyes followed him for a few seconds, seconds too precious even to blink. All the while discovering that he could still tread on my heart with each unmindful step he took.
