Mark glanced towards the stage, his voice tinged with melancholy, “Just a case of liking. what she liked, I guess.”

“She’s a fan?”

“Yeah, back in college, she really was into his stuff.”

“Small world, huh?”

I grinned, “I got into Eason áround my college years too.”

He returned a meaningful smile, “That is quite the coincidence.”

We were seated with a perfect view of the stage, not a single bad angle in sight.

As the familiar intro played and the singer appeared, the whole venue came alive with screams and sing-alongs.

Mark and I, however, were more like two outliers, just quietly listening.

Memories from years past played in my mind like a movie, shifting scenes one after another.

“Ten years ago

I didn’t know you

You weren’t mine

Yet here we are

Just two strangers side by side

Walking down increasingly familiar streets

Ten years later

We’re friends,

till able to say hello

But that kind of tenderness

No longer gives us a reason to embrace

Lovers eventually turn into friends”

Mark’s eyes shimmered with restrained emotion, “Once you’ve cried it out, will you. return to him?”

“Probably not.”
