Pretty Bird (English)

I was just an awkward college introvert who didn’t know how to talk to people. But life has a weird way of spinning you into the orbit of someone so quietly bizarre, they turn your whole world upside down.



Ell—the soft-spoken classmate I first mistook for a girl—wasn’t supposed to mean anything.

But one quiet dinner, one shared laugh, one silent night… and suddenly, they were everything.



This isn’t your average love story.

It’s about the kind of closeness that creeps in like a warm blanket, only to leave you cold and confused when it’s gone.

It’s about loving someone you never fully understood.



Someone who taught me how to feel—

and whom I left behind,

without a warning,

without a goodbye.
