I was in the middle of a round of pool with Ryan.

Then I chose the wrong song. It reminded me of you. So much. Every beat, every damn thing about it. Maybe because it is almost the exact same one that made me feel something stirring within me. To know that someone out there was actually listening and knew me better than so many others... It's the pulling factor.

For the past few days, I've sometimes found myself wondering how you are. If you're alright, if you know that someone is always gonna be here for you. But today, I just couldn't help but wonder what could've been...

But then I've always known that there was no foundation to start with... I just happily discarded that in my head with the tiniest hope that just maybe... maybe...

Suddenly I realised that there were so many other things out there just calling out to me. And I'm prepared, ready for anything that comes my way.

It was my turn. I got up, picked the furthest ball that was mine to drop and whacked the white ball as hard as I could.

I could hear the last strains of the song that slowly begun to fade.

The yellow ball went in.

Ryan turned around in shock and said, "Good shot."

I just smiled.
