"Some conversations don't stay conversations… they slowly become feelings."
After exchanging numbers, we started talking.
At first, it was slow.
Just simple messages.
"Hi."
"Okay."
"Hmm."
Nothing special.
But slowly…
those small talks turned into long conversations.
Then into daily talks.
Then into something we couldn't stop.
We started talking the whole day…
and the whole night.
There was always something to say.
Or maybe…
we just didn't want the conversation to end.
We shared so many things about each other…
things no one else knew.
My past.
His past.
My fears.
His thoughts.
Somewhere between those late-night chats…
we became close.
Very close.
One day, we decided to play a game.
Truth and dare.
At first, it was fun.
Random questions.
Silly dares.
Laughter.
Then suddenly…
everything changed.
He asked me,
"Do you like me?"
I didn't think much.
I replied calmly,
"Yes… you're a good friend and a good senior. You treat me well… so yeah, I like you."
It was simple for me.
Just a normal answer.
Then it was my turn.
And I don't know why…
but something felt different,
Something felt off.
So I asked directly,
"Do you love me?"
He replied instantly,
"Yes."
I paused.
I thought maybe…
he just meant it casually.
Maybe he didn't hate me.
Maybe that's why he said yes.
So I asked again,
"Is it in a romantic way… the way I'm thinking?"
And he said,
"Yes."
For a moment…
I didn't know what to feel.
I was shocked.
But at the same time…
somewhere inside…
I felt a little happy too.
Still, I needed clarity.
He asked me,
"Do you want me to say that I love you?"
I replied,
"I'm not asking you to say it… just say what you really feel. Not forcefully."
And then he said it clearly—
"Yes… I love you."
That moment…
changed everything.
But my heart wasn't simple.
I was not someone who could easily start again.
I was emotional.
Very sensitive.
I get hurt by small things.
I overthink a lot.
I have anger issues.
And my past…
was not good.
I told him everything.
Every single thing about me.
Then I asked him,
"Do you still want to stay with me?"
He replied without hesitation,
"Yes… I want to."
He said he would handle everything.
He would manage my overthinking.
He would understand me.
He would love me.
I wanted time.
I really did.
But he said,
"Please think now… I can't sleep tonight without your answer."
I stayed silent for some time.
Thinking.
Feeling.
Confused.
Somewhere…
I had already started falling for him.
But I didn't show it.
Finally, I said,
"Okay… let's try for one month. If it works, then we'll think about us."
He asked,
"Why one month?"
Then after a pause…
he said,
"Okay."
And just like that…
without realizing—
we stepped into something new.
📅 03/12/25
That was the day…
our relationship started.
But I didn't know…
this "one month" would turn into something I wouldn't be able to walk away from.
