There are stories to be written. Life has moved so much in these years. Porthos and Aramis are married, their beautiful loves stories are the next stories. Today we it's about Athos.
After all these years she fell in love! He was a dream. He was more she could wish for. His smile was the the most welcoming of all. The way he held her in his arms, it was her safe space. Oh! you should have seen him greet the world, like everyone belonged to him. And they loved him back too. He embodied empathy. And, and then there is this side of him, which would get excited with the smallest of this things. Beaming eyes and a big smile - right there! She loved making him laugh, although lot of her jokes would fall flat :/, they would manage to get a smile for their absurdity, I guess. He was a feminist like she had ever known or seen. He was goodness. He was home for everything she had ever experienced. He was home for Athos!
She was in love. After years of meeting and seeing people, you know when someone right - you just know that you are going all in. And she decided to go all in too. And that's where she screwed up :). Athos came with her baggage - of all these years. Her feelings intensity, her questioning self-worth, constant validation - had become a part of her without even her realizing it. All the bitterness that she had, became her. It wasn't long before she ended up taking up space in the us. Her fears, her anxieties, her bitterness.
It ended.
Life doesn't give second chances and hope Athos learns it well by now. She keeps waiting though - for her one chance, to make things right again - with him. To make him fall in love with the goodness that she is, to clean her bitterness away. I hope she finds her way back - to love, to him! God, are you listening, one chance.
S! - the tease!
