Out of the silence, he mumbled insignificantly while looking straight up at the dark blue sky, which made me wonder if we were looking at the same dot of a star or maybe not.

      As if  I'd like to comfort him but, no, I only said it because that was how the world going.

      Knowing nothing.

     '...' he still got carried away with his own thought.

     ' ...nothing. We do know nothing in this life' 

     We kept staring at our own stars like we weren't together, like we never connected, like the isolated planets that floated exactly still, waiting for the light to shine on.

     In this deep, quiet moment, none of us decided to speak a word until...

     'Do you love me?' he was the one who broke the silence. I slowly turned to face him and at that moment, I met his gaze.

     It was deeper than any dark blue sky that I could endlessly get lost in.

     'I love you' I didn't pay any attention to my voice whether I did speak it out loud enough for him to hear it or not because all I could care about was this person, who was waiting patiently to hear my answer, in front of me.

     Although I wasn't sure about my voice, I was sure that he could hear it.

     Because he said it back with his eyes.
