PART 1: WHO'S CUPID?
Laurent
What's on your mind?
He didn't respond. He just looks at me as if he's trying to read me.
Laurent
Hello? Are you mute?
Laurent
Yeah Yeah I'm talking to myself.
He asks me in his monotone voice.
Laurent
Uhmm... I'm a person.
Raven
What's in your heart?
I lag for a second. What's with his question?
Raven
You're interested in me?
Laurent
Woah Woah Woah Slow down Flash
Raven
I'm not Flash, I'm Cupid.
Raven
I don't accept love, I give love.
Laurent
You give love but can't accept one.
Laurent
Maybe no one gives you
Raven
You're different from them.
Raven
Your response is different from the other people I told it to.
He looks around watching people from afar.
Laurent
What did they say?
Laurent
Like 'if you're cupid then make their crush like them back'?
In my peripheral vision, I saw how he looks back at me.
I just pretend not to care and continue to watch other people from afar.
Laurent
Others may want other couples to break up.
Laurent
Some will ask where's your arrow and bow.
Laurent
Maybe others ask for the healing of their broken hearts.
Laurent
It depends on what they think.
Laurent
It isn't just about emotions or feelings.
Raven
Isn't love made of emotions or feelings?
Laurent
I may feel in love but my mind knows that I shouldn't be because of some factors.
Laurent
Feelings tend to fool us and most of us still believe it.
Raven
Do you still believe in your feelings?
Laurent
Maybe, but there's still a need for thinking and figuring things out.
Laurent
Before I will finally tell myself that my feelings are right.
Raven
That's why your current feelings are blurry.
This time, I look back at him. He really reads people's feelings?
Laurent
Why can't you see it clearly?
Laurent
What's the use of being Cupid.
Raven
I am. Maybe you're just using your mind more than your feelings.
Laurent
So, basically you're basing your judgement through human's current feelings or emotions?
Laurent
Sadly, you will fail your job sooner or later.
Laurent
Just because it's your job, not what you want.
He looks at me suspiciously.
Raven
What do you think I want?
Laurent
Something that can fill the void in your heart.
Laurent
A giver shouldn't just give, they need to receive back too.
Laurent
Anyways, I need to go.
I stands up and walks away but he grabs my shoulder.
Raven
...you need to forget who I am.
Laurent
What do you mean...
Instantly, I'm feeling dizzy until I fall on someone's arm and fall asleep.
I guess... that's why no one can love him back.
