Three months after the breakup, you realize a certain truth.
After the breakup, I casually opened an album. There I was. Smiling. Sulking. Stuffing my face with ice cream. Rubbing my sleepy eyes. They were all photos he had taken of me. "Stop taking so many pictures." The memory of me laughing while saying that comes flooding back. I flip to the very last page. There, my finger stops. ...There isn't a single photo of him. No matter how many times I look back, there are none. I hurriedly scrolled back through my phone. Last year, and the year before that. Just as I feared, not a single one. In that moment, my chest tightened. I was always the one being watched by him. What he looked at, what made him laugh, what kind of expressions he made. Even when I try to remember, it's all just a blur. "Hey, look this way." I can still hear his voice as he said that and took my picture. Did I ever say to him, even once, "I'll take the next one"? I thought I was looking at him. But in reality, I was only looking at myself.
