Why Do You Love Her?

Alan highly understands Qara's obsession with the crimson twilight. And he knows she will enjoy this view for the next one hour until the sun is gone. Moreover, he also knows she will unintentionally ignore his existence until finally the dusk leaving the dark. But then Qara will smile back at him, say sorry for forgetting that he is there.

"Do you know why I love evening more than I love morning?" Qara leans on Alan's shoulder.

"Because whenever the sun is, whatever the color is, the evening will always be there, serve you the best view after a long day." They suddenly look at each other because they just said the exact same thing at the same time. Qara laughed, Alan squished her hair.

"But, do you know what, it's really heartbreaking- adore the evening, I mean," Qara said.

"What? Why? I thought you like it so much... like thaattt muuchhh." Qara laughed because of Alan's response. Alan will do everything to hear Qara's laugh 24/7. Alan thinks that Qara's laugh is like a drug for him. Or it is actually?

"Because when the sun is leaving, the evening will also leave. And here you go, the darkness."

"I love darkness. Black, navy, maroon, all my t-shirts are dark."

"Ah, dumb! You ruined the vibes you know ?!" Alan laughed. He always finds it fun to messing around with Qara. His one and only.

"Alright, my bad. Please continue, sweety."

"Because I love you as much as I love dusk, Alan." Qara looks Alan right in the eyes. Another thing that Alan love from Qara is her eyes. He can drown in her black eyes eventually.

"And I am afraid you will leave me like the sun leave the evening."

"I won't leave you, Q. Why do you think like that?"

"That's what's everyone said, A. Even, you will continue your study abroad right."

"But the sun will always come back. So do I. I will always come back, to you."

"It's not it." Alan doesn't like whenever Qara put this kind of facial expression. It feels like something's going wrong.

"Then what is it, dear?"

"When you choose your own path, you won't need me anymore."

Qara looks so vulnerable. Alan tries to hold Qara's hand carefully. She's so fragile. Alan is not witty. He is very bad at making words. Not like Qara who is born with a magic tongue. But within this silence, Alan will try everything in his power to cheer her up.  

"Qara darling, do you think that I date you only because I can't cook my own meals?

Do you think that I date you because I am clumsy and I can't remember where do I put my socks?

Do you think that I date you because I don't want to watch movies on my own?" Alan doesn't used to be so smooth like this, he swears.

"No way, Q. I date you because I love you and I am afraid of losing you, okay.

Who will remind me to call my mom when it's her birthday? Who's the one who will tidy up my room and organized my closet? Who will remind me to take my medicine when I am sick? Who will call me early in the morning to wake me up? Who will hug me when I am afraid?
Who will remind me to be a better person?

You are, Qara. Even if I can fly, I will always need you. "
