A couple of days ago, Chandra uploaded a Q&A video while eating some food. From the thumbnail, he seemed to have invited a couple of people in the video. And Mami's face was edited clearly on it. That face had him added the vid into watch later. And now he played it.
And as to why? Honestly Anthony wasn't there to watch because of the content. He barely listen to what the people were saying. Hell, without the English caption on, he didn't understand anything. He even skipped most of the part to where Mami appeared, for only three minutes. Simply to put, Anthony wanted to know how she was after all. It was more of a curiosity than anything else. Right?
He paused at the moment Mami was laughing at a joke, or when she did one of those anime kawaii smile thingy. That was curiosity, right?
It was when a notification popped up on the desktop that he was being tested.
There was a strong uncertainty within his mind when he received a comment on his vlog from none other than Mami herself. The uncertainty came in a form of question, whether he should reply the comment straight on, or reply the comment by dm-ing her, or just do nothing about it.
If he replied back via comment, that meant he had signed the contract for internet drama. Imagine if he replied or liked a comment from a female account, he guaranteed that someone out there would notice and began sparked some assumption he wanted to avoid. He knew he just exaggerated an issue. But whatever. He was rather frantic about his personal life, believe it or not. And others. Poor Mami she was caught with it if the rumor started to spread. And rumors tended to spread fast.

The last choice only made him sound more than a dick he already was, so he wouldn't do that.
That left him the second, which necessarily not a bad choice after all. In fact it was the perfect topic to start over, to help the dying conversation. If he wanted to.
Did he want to?
Would it be weird if he suddenly texted her out of nowhere? Would it bother her? Would she liked his text? What if she didn't reply and broke Panda's hope? What if she was annoyed and left, again?
Hey. I got your comment - he notice his fingers were shivering only by that text. Pfft, what a loser - thanks a bunch!
Quickly as he opened the instagram tab, Anthony minimized and went back to his YouTube page, and a paused video of Mami. It was one of those bloopers of scene changing, with Chandra already out of the screen and Mami just sat by herself. When he clicked the play button, Mami was just staring into the camera goofily, singing a weird song. The footage slowly zoomed in on her like a classic meme. Now looking at her directly, he concluded that some part of her changed ever so slightly. The now longer hair framed her face quite nicely, which she put into a single messy braid across her shoulder. And he'd like to think that her glasses was a new set. If he could be honest, she looked like those elementary school teacher with them.
Also if he could be honest, she was still as beautiful as he remembered.
Oh! So this was her inspiration of the arm wrestle party. Mami, Chandra, and someone else were doing it too. They had the same bewilderment on how to do it, which Anthony could now picture his Q&A with Tyler and Scott back in the day. Anyway, Mami lost and let the other two did a real arm wrestle. In the end they had a great time.

She had a great time. And she was a great person too. She had been nothing but great person to Anthony.
And he wanted it again. Her. To be back into his giddy habit of having continuous chat all day and all night. To have her accompany his life with her silly questions and answers, her rants about her life, all of that.
Damn it, why did she had to disappear when he needed her? Why did he have to be so cold when she dm-ed her that one time?
Yeah it was last minute decision, really. Tyler invited us in and we just winged it from there. Idk, most of the vids were either Pokemon Cards or just us being dumb. We had such a great time, I'll give you that
I now know why you challenged us the arm wrestling thing
Youve done that yourself the arm wrestling. And we actually did try that. I guess youll need to wait until Tyler uploads.
Oh i already know i am a champion. And yes i watched it. Dude, your hair is like longer than I last saw you.
Oh yeah, still alive and well. Been trying to make stable videos and all of that YouTuber stuff
You? Can't say i've heard from you recently. What you been up to? And howre the twins?
Yeah yeah, i remember. You were the event coord or sumthin. I hope it all goes well, Mami!
Should i do the rain dance? Just to make sure
And why did she had to call him 'Pandabear' like the old days? It made him giddy all of the sudden. A positive kind of giddy, actually.

Candle burning in the dark
This is the story of Alyssa and Mireille, two girls in a world of Magic. They are forced to leave their homes by differing circumstances and must come to terms with their own magical abilities and the problems those bring. Alyssa is hunted for what she is, while Mireille is not certain what and who she wants to be but drifting along is not an option when her life is on the line. They live in a world that is torn by strife where humanity is not the pinnacle of existence. This is a world of high fantasy. It is my first written story. I am a non-native speaker. I will not go out of my way to shock people but the content will at times be traumatizing for sensitive people. At the moment I would guess the story to be PEGI 16 perhaps? It's light on the profanity at least? Cover from unsplash.com

Poems
While in English exists only one word for it, the ancient Greeks with their aim for self-understanding and knowledge found eight different varieties of love that we might all experience at some point:1. Eros (Erotic love) - represents the idea of sexual passion and desire;2. Philia (Affectionate love) - friendship, love between equals;3. Storge (Familial love) - love between close family members;4. Ludus (Playful love) - the early stages of falling in love;5. Mania (Obsessive love) - an imbalance between eros and ludus;6. Pragma (Enduring love) - love that has matured and developed over time;7. Philautia (Self love) - self-love in its healthiest form;8. Agape (Selfless love) - the highest and most radical type of love.(Unless stated otherwise, everything except the art belongs to me.)
