character posters for Laras & Yanu from parade ngengat
the beauty of loving someone in silence lies in our best to keep the secret. To avoid our gazes when we meet eyes. to write so that our hearts feel lighter.
He was the sweetest person alive, but she was nothing near enough to deserve his heart.
He was something a world could ask for, but she was something the world would do anything to get rid of.
He was surrounded by love, but she never felt right about love.
Them, an accident waiting to happen.
“You know I left a part of me in that city. With you. With all the memories I’ve made there. I remember the blinding intensity of the neon lights at night. The deafening noises of afternoon traffic. I’m convinced there’s still a whisper of my laughter at that coffee shop we used to go to. When they prepare your cup and ask you for your name, you have probably come close to saying mine a hundred times already. When you walk down the street, there has to be a shadow of my body dancing next to yours. An imprint of my fingers against your palm. The sound of my phantom footsteps that you can’t seem to shake. I bet you still hear the echo of a song I used to sing ringing through your empty apartment every now and then. Your sister always said it was too quiet anyway when I wasn’t around. I wonder if you like the quiet now. If you got used to it. If you found someone new to fill it. I wonder if you ever come across a part of me, whether or not I left it behind willingly, and regret any of the things we did. Just a little. Just for a second. I wonder if you’d be sad if you met me and realised I tried so hard to get rid of the parts you left behind with me that I erased a little of myself in the process.”

i will kill the spiders. i will share my fries with you when you’ve finished all yours and are still hungry. i won’t ever pop my collar. i will never be rude to your tummy- when i hear it growl and gurgle. i promise to bend down and reply respectfully. i will eat the mushrooms when we order the supreme pizza. i will kiss the papercuts. and the door-slammed finger, and the counter-bumped hip. i’ll try my hardest not to get annoyed when you whisper questions and comments during movies. i will be the big spoon. i will let you win at wrestling, sometimes. other times i will not. i will go faster. harder. i will pull when you want. and tease you when you don’t. i will send you random texts and leave you silly gifts. not always. not on schedule. just whenever i want to. whenever i think you need one. or seven. i will check your tire pressure. and remind you to take your car in. i will hold your hand. i will love you. i will love you. i will love you.
I'm not even 20, yet, but it feels like I'm standing in the middle of quarter life crisis. I'm questioning my career, days spent thinking about taxes, my brain has collapsed since its thinking to much about how am I supposed to make a living, a totally messed social life, and homeworks from college been haunting me all day.
IDK if my life just messed up in general or what, but I'm truly tired. Too tired to try to reach my goals.
