00:00I told her I loved her one night, not casually, but with my whole heart, and she didn't say it back, she just looked at me softly, held my hand, and said, thank you, and for a second, yeah, it hurt, because a part of me wanted to hear it, echoed right away.
00:21I wanted certainty, reassurance, but then I looked into her eyes, and I didn't see rejection, I didn't see coldness, I saw someone who wanted love to be real, not rushed, not forced, not spoken because she should, but when her heart was ready, so I stayed, I trusted her instead of my fear.
00:45I chose patience, instead of pressure, and sometime later, on a simple, ordinary day, she said, I love you too, not because she had to, but because she truly felt it, and you know what, that love, was worth waiting for.
