Has there ever been someone you feel completely and utterly naked around, like as if they can see right through you? Like you’re a glass bottle and your insides lay exposed to be seen. I’ve wondered how she has this ability to know what’s in my head. Right now she’s thousands of miles away, she hasn’t heard my voice in months, hasn’t seen my eyes, hasn’t laid eyes on me. Yet somehow when I talk to her, she just knows that I’m not okay. I wonder how she does it.
I lie and say I’m fine, she doesn’t believe me, I convince her anyway. But it’s scary that someone knows me that well. There’s just no fooling her. It’s that sort of thing that you can’t place a finger on, that you can’t define. It’s just something you know, like a gut feeling. While I just seem to know when she’s not okay too, without being able to justify how I know, I still don’t know how she does it. It’s that thing, whatever it is, that leads people like me to believe she is the one.
