>She rolls on her stomach to behold you as she passes the cigarette back.
>"What the hell happened on Earth that makes you want to hide that fact?"
"Usually would get ghosted if you showed you cared, you would get the results you want by doing the exact opposite."

"Take a guess."
>She picked up on the regret on your face.
>She saw the sorrow, missed opportunities, lonely nights and frustration, only briefly until it was replaced with a smile.
>"Babe, I-"
"It's only a foot note now," you say, waving away her pity.
