rebound

i once had a friend, and i like him. he likes some other girl. they're both talking; he's always there for her. they make each other happy. until this girl had a boyfriend; she cut off their communication because of this. then he got broken-hearted. i started teasing him "rebound!" and i found it hilarious. but still, i'm always here to listen to his rants, and i also tried to give him advices, but he just won't listen to me (i suck at giving advices). he really got hurt. then idk i just suddenly fell in love with his words. i fell in love more when i saw him in his downs. we're both talking and because of that i knew him well and we got closer. he became my happy pill; when i'm sad i don't want anything but to talk to him. i'll never explain the happiness he gave me.

until one time, the girl & his bf broke up. the girl ran to him and he started to comfort her. they started talking again. yup, he's still there for him. even tho i feel like he's just being used as a rebound when the girl is sad or having a quarrel with his bf.

until they both became close friends. he's kinda hurt because he's on a friendzone (we are both lol) and that girl still loves her ex bf. then i suddenly felt that i'm starting to lose him. i just felt like he found someone better than me to talk about his life. and that "someone" is the girl he likes, so what can a potato do compare to a diamond? haahha.. she still hurts him but he's numb. he spoils that girl with material things. he puts on a lot of effort for every girl he gets to love, even tho his efforts go unnoticed. yup, my friend is really an ideal guy.

but he kinda stopped telling me things about his life. we kinda stopped talking, he doesn't talk to me sometimes unless i ask him, but even if i ask him he will still keep it a secret and say "i can't say it to you, [girl] is the only one who knows this",, i respect his privacy but as a friend it do hurts when he says this. maybe because he doesn't need someone like me to rant on because he's happy on the moment he's with the girl he likes.

yes, she's the one who is making him happy right now. but where was her when he was hurting? where was her when the time his life was rough? where was her when he was drowning in his tears???

and, how funny when i was teasing him "rebound" that time then i realized that i was the one who's been rebounded. well, he was only there by my side when he was hurting then he suddenly left me behind and forgot me, for a girl.

the world seems unfair. we always like someone whom can't like us back. someone who can replace us and leave us someday. but, what's important is we're sharing the kindness that grows from our heart. it's not love if we're assuming to get the same love we give to others. we love because we love them. even tho it hurts sometimes. (this is what i learned from him)

yes, sometimes people come and go. don't get hurt if they leave. God has a purpose why you met someone even though they'll leave; maybe to teach you a lesson that can help you grow in life. we just need to guard our heart and don't get too attached. be thankful for everyone you meet. yup it hurts, but it will pass, maybe not now but soon (i'm just glad all my tears about him already passed, but the marks from the scars really needs time to fade).

and i'm forever thankful i met you. to this guy who's a friend of mine, hi reboundddd haha are we still friends? if not, just know i'll still be here when she'll hurt you again. i hope your friendship stays strong. thank you for all the pain and for all the happiness you gave me!! i am so happy i met you. i'm so happy that you gave me happiness even just for a short period of time. i know there are other friends of yours who's, again, better than me, but i will "always" be here. i'm sorry i can't tell you all about my feelings; just don't wanna lose our closeness before, but when i'm ready i'll tell u since we're not kinda talking anymore. even tho you feel like you were made as a rebound sometimes, i'm here; i can be your rebound.

i can be your rebound, because i guess that's the only way i can get close to you (again...?).

(uhh ok i hope u just won't notice me if ever u can read this and if u do just ignore me hehe.)

(sorry peeps for the kinda cliche story lol just wanna take out what's here in my heart and mind rn)
