Too Ordinary Yet Weirdly Charming.
14th May 2026,, 2352~
A starry night sky that I took this year.
This is not gonna be about the starry night from the picture. It is going to be about those whom I have ever encountered and felt for their ordinariness.
I'm a certified yearner and hopeless in this chapter called ROMANCE. When I looked back, I realised how little I spent my time thinking about a significant other or whatever it's called. And over the course of my short span of life so far, I have had a crush on around 5 people in total. I seriously had zero interest in this, but I'm also not completely out of touch either (maybe?).
Recently, I had a crush on this one particular guy. I saw him performing with his band one night and have been thinking about him ever since. He was either the guitarist or bassist of the band, which I'm not sure, but he was good with his instrument, and that was impressive to me.
When you hear something about a crush, usually people will tell how great, the most good-looking, talented, or smartest they are, right? But he is ordinary. He looks fine, but not the handsomest person in the room. He doesn't have any WOW factor on himself. He is just a human who lives his life as it is. But the one thing that caused me trouble was his smile. The guy who looks like he is bored out of his mind suddenly has a soft smile around his friends. I'm loving every second of the smile that I saw that day.
I've always been like this. The people that I took a liking to were always the most ordinary in the room. Somehow, they were glowing more to me. Maybe it comes down to the fact that I've always thought that I'm a weird human, so ordinary people always shine the brightest. They are like the stars in the sky. Pretty. Glowing. Blinding. So easy to admire yet so far to reach. Just like how I love star-gazing, so my crushing episode always ended up as admiration, and I think that's enough. シ
