Vain
Chapter 43 - Affinity of Ours
The moment their eyes met, it felt as if time had stopped. Aileene could see her own reflection in his eyes and she felt that everything was alright like this. She didn't have to linger in his view. This small interaction would be enough for her to just reminisce.

Lucian, for the first time in his life, felt as if everything that he had ever needed, ever forgotten appeared right before his eyes once again. The girl that he had lost was in front of him again, and her beautiful face was carved in a sad smile. He felt heartache at her lonely appearance above him, and so he tried to reach out to her. But his voice wouldn't help him, he stood and wallow in the bittersweet silence.
Everything he must do, every action he must take. Even the very person he was does not deserve her. He could not give her happiness, for he had already betrayed all that she loves.
She was innocent, and he could not taint her.
But the more he stared into her eyes, the more he could not bear to leave. The more he remembered the forgotten joy he had experience with her. They had only met once, but that was more than enough for him to want to see her again.
He wanted to spend all his time to develop this relationship with her, he wanted to devote a part of his heart to build a world with her. The only girl he had ever missed, but he knew.
Lucian knew that this was only a selfish wish that could not be fulfilled. And from then on, he merely stood and watched her ever lonely figure leave.
