A Song

This song reminds me of you.
I raised my left eyebrow. Suddenly? What song?
This. You hand me one of your earphones so I can listen to it.
Hm… Isn’t it a bit gloomy?
You think so?
It’s not? So what makes this song reminds you about me?
I don’t know, you shrugged off.
We listen to the song until the end. You take your earphone back.
I’m going to listen to it again.
For what?
I like this song. 
Here we go. Once you feel like attached to a song, you would listen to it until you could ‘understand’ it. People might think you’re mad while looking outside the window, but it’s just you thinking in your serious mode. 
And here, I’m just watching you lost into your world.
Sometimes I feel jealous. I want to go to that world too. So I could ‘understand’ you better.
What did you see?
What did you hear?
So is this how it feels to be left alone?
Ah, I feel stupid now.
Hello, knock, knock! Are you there?
Oh, you’re back?
Yes, and I guess now I know.
What?
Why this song reminds me of you. 
You nod and smile. 
And the rain starts falling outside.
