For many moments of my cold solitary life (aww drama), not just once, twice, thrice or how many-ever it has been (I can’t even count it with all my fingers in my body), I’ve been telling myself that “I have moved on” these line has, somewhat, already been a cliché for me and the problem is I never grew tired of it.
But this time I just, seriously, hope that it’ll work. Besides, this time I won’t be telling myself that “I have moved on”, instead, it would be a ecstatic “I am over it”. I just really hope that this time it’ll work.
I just decided it yesterday. *grins* ..hmmm.. but yesterday he texted me again. You know, his casual text, he greets me a good evening, mentions my name, says that he was the one texting, offers obeisances, informs me that he’s already home, asks how I am, and you may just think about the other stuff.
Usually, when he texts me, automatically after a few moments you’ll be seeing me at the nearest loading station. But last night was quite different. I got irritated upon seeing his name appear in my inbox. A few hours before that, I was at the stairs. I went deleting his messages in my phone. And believe me, it left my inbox clean. His messages really consumed a lot of spaces in my phone’s memory. It’s such a relief that his messages are gone. Such a relief, that it means that I won’t be wasting my time again, every night before I sleep, reading his senseless messages. It only reminds me how I allowed myself to be conned by an imbecilic XY chromosome.
This morning I was also cleaning up the disk drive of my laptop depriving myself of seeing again his, and our, pictures, videos, et cetera.
What made me decide to do these? Well, let’s just say that I got tired of him. The other time he told me that I was expecting too much from him. Ouch right? I don’t remember what I did for him to slap me with those words. The last time he asked me to be careful with my use of words if I want to get along with his family. Then, I realized, why should I act in a modest manner for his family to like me? I am not courting his family and we have no relationship such as that I have to please them. What was he thinking? Is he insane?
Instead of calling them prabhu and mother, I call them pita and tita. Too much of familiarity, huh? I can’t help it. They made me get used to it and besides they have no objections when I call them that way.
I know we can still be friends, but not now, maybe soon, or someday. It doesn’t matter. Were hundreds of miles away from each other so it won’t even matter. I am over him I believe I am.
