"you are my sweetest downfall
i loved you first, i loved you first
beneath the sheet of paper lies my truth
i have to go, i have to go"


grasping for breath after climbing down two flights of stairs, i paused and paced myself. like a cat, i sashayed silently down the last steps with my hands sliding the freshly varnished wooden banister. some noise from the kitchen caught my attention. i saw your mom looking at my direction, pointing me to you.

quickly i spun around and started rushing upstairs. i had a hard time pushing against the cool wind up but i had to try with all the strength left with me. alas, i wasn't fast enough. you then stood in front of me. 'i'm trapped!', i said to myself.

tired and exhausted, i sat down at the foot of the bed, still facing you, barely moving. i sat there staring at your face, waiting for the first word to come out of your mouth as you lean back on a wooden cabinet.

suddenly, i realized i was wearing your pyjamas and we're in your room. it was really embarrassing, i can no longer look at you then so i just looked down. then you started talking. i was amazed that we're both thinking the same thing. we really needed to talk. after all those years, the years we wasted not talking, it seems that we quite missed a great deal of things.

leaning down the bed sideways as my feet were still touching the floor, i uttered my first words. when my head reached the bed i looked at you again and noticed that you were wearing pyjamas too. i then started saying the things that i've been meaning to tell you.

you then crawled towards the bed, finding a spot behind me while you surprised me with what you were saying, things that i never thought you would say. thank God you finally said them.

then your voice gradually faded away. darn, i was trying hard to go back to sleep. i wanna hear the rest of it. but i can't and and darn it's 9am! i have a breakfast meeting with pammy. i tried to ring her number but i only got 'the number you dialed is not yet assigned' voice prompt. so i turned on the pc to chikka (ad! :P) her only to find you online. oh great! you know the rest of the story.
