๐๐๐ง๐๐ฅ๐๐ฅ๐ฌ | What Does Blue and Yellow Make?
For a start, it certainly doesn't make blellow. We know that much.
We'd honestly laugh at questions like that. The kind with obvious answers that you'd answer with sarcasm. The kind you donโt even think about because you justโฆ know. Blue and yellow make green. Simple. Done.
Yet it's strange how something so simple can start to feel unfamiliar later on. Not because the answer changed, but because of how we define something as we continue to live out our lives.
It is a constant to think that if things were meant to be, they would naturally become something beautiful. That they would always blend, always work, always turn into something new.

Sometimes, it simply lets them exist side by side. Close enough to be seen together, but never close enough to become one.

What if there was a version of this story where it worked? Where the world was kinder, where distance didnโt learn our names, and where misunderstandings never became endings?
In that version, blue and yellow wouldnโt stay separate. They would finally become greenโsomething that feels like it was always supposed to exist. Something that works. Something allowed. Something that stays.
But not here. Not in this one. Because not everything becomes a lifetime, some things just feel like one.
Maybe that is why I think of you sometimes. Not as a failure, but as an "almost" that exists in this lifetime. As something that existed beautifully for a moment in my lifeโso real it almost convinced me it would last, even if I knew that I would be the one that would fail to catch you.
Like the stories I continue to rememberโpairs that everyone believed in: Cho and Cedric, Amihan and Ybrahim, Frieren and Himmel, Maine and Alden, and Bianca and Willโfamiliar pairs that we rooted for without question. Blue and yellow characters, standing beside each other in every scene, every frame in the filmโฆ and yet they were far from being the "endgame." Not because they lacked love, but because the story simply wasnโt written in their favor. Stories that have taught me to accept that some things are not meant to be forced, not when ๐ช๐ต ๐ธ๐ข๐ด ๐ข๐ญ๐ญ ๐ข๐ฏ ๐ช๐ญ๐ญ๐ถ๐ด๐ช๐ฐ๐ฏ.

For now, I'll stay here. In this version, I'll stay awake from a ๐จ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฅ ๐ฅ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ข๐ฎ. Even if it means I would spend a lifetime waiting.
