Despite the 9300 km between us the distance seemed to vanish during those nights. We talked every single day sharing our emotions our school lives and our dreams of finding a love that lasts a lifetime.
Even though we had never met or even spoken on the phone yet it felt like I had known you for years. In the quiet of those late night conversations something I thought was long gone started to wake up inside me : real romantic feelings. I did not have the courage to say it out loud yet but I tried to show it through every word and every gesture.
Those nights were special because even with the language barrier we always found a way to understand each other. We used translation tools and we were so patient because getting to know one another was the only thing that mattered. I remember the feeling of safety I had when talking to you. It was like the rest of the world disappeared and it was only us in our own little bubble.
I used to wait for your messages with so much excitement. Every notification from you made my heart jump and I would stay up very late just to talk to you a little bit more. Those whispers in the dark were the foundation of everything we built later. You became my confidante and my favorite part of every day.
