Over Coffee


My friend S, while describing the new guy she’s fallen for: “you know that feeling, when you’re laying close to a person, and you can faintly feel their heartbeat in their chest, and you realize you’re falling in love, and that you can feel your own heart swell till it burst from your chest, and keeps expanding till it feels like its swallowing the two of you whole?”

Me: “…….No”

S:  “But you know that feeling when you’re first falling for a new guy?”

Me: “….apparently not”
