your face seems so calm as if you know whats going to happen next "i dare you" i say and smile "what else" you ask as you put the little figure down and suddenly "checkmate" i am aware of the loss yet i am still hoping "i won" "i know" i say "what are you waiting for then" "i dont know" i say my eyes burn i try to fight back those tears traitors "i won" you say "i won" again i shake my head "i dont care" "but i won" "lets play one more time" i beg i never beg you look confused but do not refuse "another one" i position my king you position yours "what if you lose" you look at me gently "then i lost" i position my queen you position yours "the queen is indeed the mightiest of all" i say as i do the opening move you put on your pokerface i dont bother putting mine on "your turn" "this leads to nothing" you say you see it dont you you are losing the game goes on "this leads to nothing" you say again I crack a smile my fingers set the next move this is your end you stare at me i grin your face filled with pain "checkmate" you say maybe you really suffered more even when you won
