"PACMAN"
[ #DAY6 #JAE OneShot]
If someone ask me to describe love in a sentence, I& #39;d say that love, for me, is like one scary game that no one ever wins.
But the way I view love suddenly changed—that gloomy day when I met a bleached-hair guy on the train ride home.

I won& #39;t be able to know his name if not for the incoming iMessage that I had unintentionally seen...
"Jae. Let& #39;s break up."

I didn& #39;t want to intrude his personal business but for some odd reason, I sensed that his heart was silently yet heavily being ripped into two—and so, I thought of opening the windows to let the crisp air kiss his skin & comfort his soul.

"Fresh air won& #39;t heal a broken heart but atleast it relaxes the mind for a little while." I subtly gazed at him.
Jae& #39;s lips curved into an enigmatic smile before slowly closing his eyes—as if momentarily allowing the chilly wind to carry all the heaviness in his heart.

There was a 30-minute silence before Jae broke it by saying, "If I tell you what breaks me, will you promise-"
"What happens here stays here." I cut off his words.
"...and besides, after we get off this train. We& #39;re back being strangers again." I then added w/ a soft smile.

Jae put both his pretty yet bony hands inside the pockets of his black jacket & averted his gaze at the night city landscape outside that was quickly sliding by.
"She broke up with me." He muttered, w/ a voice that had an indescribable sorrow on it.

I turned to face him and commented, "Breakups happen all the time."
Jae nodded and answered back, "You& #39;re right. It happens all the time and yet, I& #39;m still here—tirelessly calling her, chasing her, and choosing her over & over again..."

"Over and over like a red rover?" I remarked which made Jae smile.
"Like Pacman and lover." He said, as he tried to hush the ache & fight his tears with an empty chuckle.

"Pacman must be exhausted then." I muttered, obviously using the maze arcade game as a metaphor of him.
"All the chasing definitely exhaust his heart..." Jae nodded, as he then lowered down his head—for me not see a lone tear that trickled down his cheeks.

We paused talking as the train entered a tunnel—streak of diffuse lights hit Jae& #39;s face making it look like surprise cosmos in a non-starry dark sky.
The whole scene was breathtaking like him—gleaming despite the darkness, beautiful despite being broken.

"Would you still hold on even if it kills you?" I asked in the middle of silence.
Jae then gazed at me and answered back, "If I die it& #39;s with her."

And as the train approaches the end of the tunnel, Jae continued with a frail smile...
"Most people might think Pacman is such a loser for chasing too much—but aren& #39;t we all too much when we& #39;re inlove?"

We both get off at the last station, left all the stories & heartbreaks inside, and bid each other goodbyes.
And as Jae turned his back & walked in the opposite direction, I looked at him for the last time—and realized that perhaps, my view in love was wrong afterall...
