two strangers
sat in two different rows
watching The Avengers
but this is how their story goes
today, they will cross paths
and catch a glimpse of each other
the girl rushing to finish her drafts
the boy breaking up with his ex lover
two unacquainted lives intersect
waiting for the right place, right time
like a highly anticipated project
to make two random words rhyme
a few years from now, two strangers
will find their lives intertwined by fate
two strangers to friends to lovers
that will become each other's soulmate
right now, they may not be aware
of the resilient red string
that they both share
like a binding, invisible ring
all the stories they create now
they will share to each other later
exchanging "seriously?" and "wow!"
as they take turns to be the narrator
for now, two strangers
sat across from each other in a tearoom
the boy vowing to have no more lovers
the girl creating drafts for her next volume
