we all were.

under normal circumstances, we'd be
happy if we are proven to be right.
but at times, that isn't a great thing.

currently reading an interesting book,
and this excerpt from it definitely
caught my attention;

"...two days later we were in a hall attending
yet another orientation talk. The Boy came up
and sat next to me. we had an awkward, whispery
conversation in an otherwise silent hall.

and the minute he asked for my number,
i was convinced that this was going to be
the big love story of my life.

i was right, only not in the way i would've
thought it would unravel and certainly not
with the ending i ever had in mind..."

from 'dumped', by amal nadiah ghazali

well, that hit close to home, and as much as
it deflates me, we also all thought that The Past
was our very own happy ending.

so yup, we were right in a way. we all were.
