20th December

after going to the cafe today, i decided to take a walk to clear my head.

i didn't know where i was going. my legs were going on it's own.

i ended up in front of a building.

just by looking at the building made me smile widely.

it was the building where we first met.

the building we went to was filled with people who ran away from home.

we ran away too and met here

i remember it perfectly.

i ran away because i was tired of how my stepparents were abusing me.

you told me you ran away because your parents were hurting you both physically and mentally.

it was understandable, why we ran.

our parents didn't treat us right. we were tired.

but i guess, it was a good thing our parents were like that.

if not, we wouldn't have ran away.

then we wouldn't have met.

you wouldn't have cried into my chest while i whispered in your ear that everything was okay. that you were free.
