Always Yours
The Chance
Liam
Liam woke up to the soft hum of his alarm clock ⏰
Liam
Sunlight streaming through the thin curtains of his small apartment.
Liam
A day he usually spent reading or exploring the city.
Liam
Today, however, he felt an inexplicable pull towards his favorite café
Liam
The Cozy Corner, a quaint little spot nestled between a used bookstore and a flower shop.
Liam
He grabbed his worn-out book, an old friend that had seen him through countless lonely days, and set out.
The streets were bustling with life, people moving with purpose
Liam
But Liam's mind was elsewhere. He had a lot on his plate: His job as a freelance writer was demanding,
Liam
And he often found himself lost in thought, mulling over plot twists and character developments.
The Cozy Corner was his sanctuary, a place where he could escape and let his creativity flow.
Ethan
Ethan, On the other hand,
Ethan
Was having one of those mornings where everything seemed to go wrong.
Ethan
His alarm hadn’t gone off,
Ethan
His coffee machine was acting up,
Ethan
And he was running late for a crucial meeting with a client.
Ethan
As an architect, his life was a whirlwind of designs, deadlines, and last-minute changes.
Ethan
He barely had time to catch his breath, let alone notice the world around him.
Ethan
As Ethan rushed down the street
Ethan
His mind preoccupied with the details of his latest project
Ethan
He didn’t see Liam turning the corner.
They collided with a force that sent Liam’s book flying out of his hands.
Papers scattered everywhere, fluttering down like leaves in the autumn wind.
The Encounter
Liam
His face a mixture of surprise and embarrassment.
Liam
He bent down to gather his things
Liam
His heart pounding in his chest.
Liam
When he looked up, his eyes met Ethan’s
And for a moment, everything else faded away.
Ethan
Ethan, momentarily stunned
Ethan
Quickly knelt to help.
Ethan
“No, it’s my fault. I wasn’t paying attention,”
Ethan
He said, his voice calm yet firm.
Ethan
He handed Liam his book
Their hands brushed, and a spark of recognition flickered between them.
It was as if they had known each other in another lifetime, their souls reaching out across the void.
Liam
Liam blushed, feeling a warmth spread through him.
Liam
He murmured, tucking a strand of hair behind his ear.
Liam
“I’m Liam, by the way.”
Ethan
"I am Ethan” replied,
Ethan
A soft smile playing on his lips.
Ethan
“Nice to meet you, Liam."
They stood there for a moment, the world around them resuming its frantic pace, but they were in their own little bubble.
Ethan
Liam couldn’t shake the feeling that something significant had just happened.
There was an inexplicable connection, a sense of familiarity that defied logic.
Ethan
“I should get going,” Ethan said reluctantly
Ethan
Glancing at his watch. “I have a meeting.”
Liam
“Of course,” Liam replied,
Liam
Feeling a pang of disappointment. “I’ll see you around?”
Ethan
Ethan nodded, his eyes lingering on Liam’s for a beat longer than necessary.
As they parted ways, both men couldn’t shake the feeling that they had just crossed paths with someone important.
The emotions
Liam
Liam, back at the café, found his thoughts drifting to Ethan.
Liam
His heart ached with a strange sense of longing, a feeling he couldn’t quite understand.
Ethan
Ethan, meanwhile, sat through his meeting, barely paying attention.
Ethan
His mind kept replaying the encounter, the way Liam’s eyes had seemed to see right through him.
Ethan
He felt an unfamiliar tug at his heart, a yearning that went beyond mere attraction.
That night, under the soft glow of the city lights, both men found themselves staring out their respective windows, lost in thought.
Liam
Liam wondered if he would ever see Ethan again,
Ethan
While Ethan questioned the sudden shift in his emotions.
Unbeknownst to them, fate had already woven their destinies together.
The threads of their lives were pulling them closer, guiding them towards a story that had transcended time itself.
As the stars twinkled in the night sky, the city continued to bustle around them. Two souls, once separated by circumstances, were now on a path to rediscover each other. And so, their journey began, a tale of love and destiny unfolding in the heart of the city.
