IS THIS CLOSURE??? yo fuck me up ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ๐ŸŽบโœจ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿฝ

bro.

holy shit.

๐Ÿ’ญ

something
just happened
that historically should have
emotionally fucked me up.

๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ’ซ

and instead
my brain just went:

โ€œoh shit. ok.โ€

โœจ๐Ÿง 

like what.

the.

fuck.

๐ŸฅŠ๐Ÿ˜ต

โ€”

scene:

โ›ฐ๏ธ๐ŸŒ‘๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธโœจ

iโ€™m minding my business.
existing peacefully. ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ
living my
little crazy-ass life.

๐Ÿคโœจ๐ŸŒ™๐Ÿฆ‹

vibing about how
periwinkle is like
totally an โœจilluminating colorโœจ

โ€”

and thenโ€”

BAM. ๐Ÿซข๐Ÿ’ฅ๏ธ

โ€ฆthis motherfuckerโœจ

โœจ๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’จ

โ€”

the phenomenon โœจ๐ŸŒˆ
that only happens with
one specific human.

๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ๐ŸŒช๏ธโœจ๐Ÿ‘‘

the one where
the air suddenly evaporates
and my brain goes:

โšกโšกโšก

oh hell no. ๐Ÿ’ฅ
there is
no fucking wayโ€”

and
i freeze
for like half a second.

โšก๏ธ๐Ÿซจ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ๐Ÿ“‰๐ŸŒ‘

like??

YO

๐Ÿ’ฅ what the actual FUCK
๐Ÿ’ฅ is going ON RN???

โ€”

side note:

(why tf

this random hoodie
via 2020
from his dad tho???

โœจabsolutely dies ๐Ÿชฆ๐Ÿ’€ )

โ€”

MUST HAVE
๐Ÿ’ฅ BLACKED TF OUT.

๐Ÿซจ๐Ÿ“ข๐Ÿ†˜

i rememberโ€”
๐Ÿ˜ฑ seeing camo
๐Ÿ˜ฑ thinking โ€œlol cool pantsโ€
๐Ÿ˜ฑ looking upโ€”
WAIT A FUCKING SECOND ๐Ÿงจ๐Ÿ’ฅ

๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿšฉ

(canโ€™t think) ๐Ÿ’ฅ

๐Ÿซฃ i exit.
๐Ÿซฃ i sit in the car.
๐Ÿซฃ stare at the sweatshirt.

โœจ๐Ÿง โœจ

look at my dog. ๐Ÿ•

look back. ๐Ÿ’ฅ

and
there
he
is.

yo

i am not hallucinating.

๐Ÿ”Œโ˜๏ธ๐Ÿ“‰๐Ÿซจ

right there. ๐Ÿ’ฅ

withโ€”

โœจ a girl. โœจ

โ€”

omg.

now listen.

in the past
this scene would have
triggered approximately
a goddamn billion โšก๏ธ
emotional sub-plotlines
.

โœจ๐Ÿ˜ญโœจ

๐ŸŒ€ crying.
๐ŸŒ€ confusion.
๐ŸŒ€ genuine sadness.
๐ŸŒ€ existential dread???

๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ™ƒ๐Ÿ”ฅ

butโ€ฆ

today?

โšก๏ธ yโ€™all. โšก๏ธ

โ€ฆ

my brain just
ran the scan
and went:

๐Ÿ’ฅ

oh. ok.

๐Ÿง˜๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿงจ

โ€”

like genuinely.

๐Ÿ˜ she looked nice.
๐Ÿ˜ pretty actually.

and โœจthe onlyโœจ thought
my mind yielded was:

๐Ÿ’ฅ

damn.
i hope heโ€™s fucking happy.

๐Ÿ˜จโšก๏ธ๐Ÿฅน

โ€”

bro.

โœจand that was it.โœจ

๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿงฏ

like literally.

that was
the whole-ass
๐ŸŒˆ emotional event.

๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿฅน

โ€”

wait,
but like???

๐Ÿ’ฅ no spiral?
๐Ÿ’ฅ no meltdown?
๐Ÿ’ฅ no decade-long fucking perplexity???

๐Ÿ‘ผ๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ“ฑ๐Ÿšซโœจ

shit.

because listen
life has made me realize
the most loving shit you can do
is let people go.

๐Ÿฅ€

โ€”

so itโ€™s
just me
sitting there
for three seconds going

โœจyo.
thatโ€™s fucking wild.
โœจ

๐Ÿง ๐Ÿ’ญ

and thenโ€”


i drove home.

๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ

โ€”

reported
the semi-annual
๐Ÿ˜จโšก๏ธ
โ€œlol. girl.
that was weird afโ€”
babe!!
that universe glitch-shit
โ€”just happened againโ€
โšก๏ธ๐Ÿคก
text to my bestie.

โ€”

like onโ€”
๐Ÿ˜ that hike w your mom.
๐Ÿ˜ or driving down the street.
๐Ÿ˜ or darting the fuck off
๐Ÿ’ฅ with some
๐Ÿ’ฅ unexpected chick,
that
i truly hope
makes you so fucking happy.

๐Ÿซจ๐ŸŒช๏ธ

(i mean that shit, โœจamenโœจ.)

โ€”

because then??

yo i justโ€”
continued with my day.

โ€ฆ

because apparently
the โœจfinal stage of healing โœจ
is when
the thing that used
to fucking break you
just becomes:

background static.

โœจ๐Ÿ’ซ

โ€”

๐Ÿ”ฅ no emotions.
๐Ÿ”ฅ no attachment.
๐Ÿ”ฅ no fucking void.

what??

just a weird-ass
little reminder
that youโ€™ve moved to
an entirely different timeline.

๐Ÿ’ž

and
whatever
thatโ€ฆ
was??
it proved we just
flared up
for one fucking second
like a dying-ass star
that was
always destined

to burn the fuck out.

โœจ๐Ÿ’ฅโ˜„๏ธ

โ€”

honestly,
babe?

10/10 experience.

๐Ÿง˜๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธโšก๏ธ๐Ÿซจ

would recommend
emotional detachment.

โœจ๐Ÿ’ซ

xoxo

p.s. she really was pretty.
