Three months after the breakup, you realize a certain truth.
After we broke up, I happened to open a photo album. There I was. Smiling. Sulking. Stuffing my face with ice cream. Rubbing my eyes sleepily. Every single one was a photo he had taken of me. "Stop taking so many pictures." I remember laughing as I said that. I flipped through to the very last page. There, my finger stopped. ...There isn't a single photo of him. No matter how many times I look back, there are none. I hurried to scroll back through my phone. Last year, and the year before that. Just as I feared, not one. In that moment, my chest tightened. I was always the one being watched by him. What was he looking at? What made him laugh? What kind of expressions did he make? Even when I try to remember, it's all a blur. "Hey, look this way." I can still hear his voice as he took those photos. Did I ever say, even once, "I'll take the next one"? I thought I was looking at him. But in reality, I was only looking at myself.
