So close but yet so far.

She looks at him playing with his phone, smiling and looking happy. It is the same smile that he gave her 5 years ago. A blissful smile, a smile as if he has everything in his hands, content. But now the smile is not for her anymore, it's for someone in his phone. She finds it amazing that someone who's not virtually there can make him as happy as that but she, who's sitting in front of him cant do the same. Moments like this will usually make her feel so small, like a mice in a dark alley. But not tonight. She has finally accepted that she has lost the ability to make him jump over the moon, and does not feel like doing it anymore.  But what about her? Is he still making her happy? Yes. Or maybe not.

Good thing that now we don't have to sneak around to do that. See, I am holding your hand now. Oh, your fingers are cold. Do you want me to make the temperature higher? Never mind, I'll just hold your hand and make you feel warm with my hand." ...

Lisa sets everything up quickly because she is already late. She promised Sarah that she would talk to her everyday, at 12a.m. sharp. Whenever she is late, Sarah will be upset and angry and that is something that she would want to avoid. She does not need another broken cup or flickering light. "Sarah, are you there?" Lisa feels quite chilly that night and that is because she left the window open. She is unsure whether it is true or not, but some people say that if you want the connection to be better, you should leave your windows open. "Today is a very bad day. I saw them.. I saw them together" Sarah's voice is trembling, she is holding back her tears. She is talking about her 'soulmate', Alex who dumped her because their souls were no longer connecting. But it is true.
