Phoebe doesn't quite believe in fate the way I do. She says you have to chase your destiny, and she always expects life to be like a romantic comedy: all you have to do is dress the part of the heroine, and pretty soon you'll be kissing some hottie while fountains spew and music swells in the background. ↗

I am going to sit back. I am not waiting. Because waiting will mean expecting and that, will hurt. I am just sitting back looking at you. I am making sure that when it does happen, and whatever that may be, I will remember you. I will remember the way you smile, I will remember your eyes and the fine lines around them when you throw back your head and laugh, I will remember you hands, the fingers I held in mine even if for a fleeting moment. I will remember the way your hair kisses your forehead and how you walk. toward me, and away. ↗
