親密しんみつshinmitsu
intimacy, friendshipPART FIVE: waist beneath
Midori and i sat silently
beside each other
watching as Zuzu leapt across grass and flowers swaying in the breeze
sending sand flying beneath her paws
and blades of grass in our direction.
the absence of words
would have been pleasant
had Midori been someone else.
her silence was making me slightly nervous
and i could only counter it to the growing swirl of unknown emotions
that were stirring inside of me each time we
were alone together.
it made me want to both avoid her and stay closer to her
which confused the hell out of me.
i glanced at her through my peripheral vision
she was staring straight ahead
but she didn't look uncomfortable in this situation at all.
i guess it's just me then.
