"When two previous lovers bump into each other after a long span since their breakout. ."
"FOR THE OLD TIMES SAKE"
He skips a beat. .
She just clears her throat.
For the old times sake. .
He waves. .
She responds.
For the old times sake. .
He greets. .
She nods.
For the old times sake. .
'So?' says he. .
'Great' says she.
For the old times sake. .
She goes past him.
He asks to wait. .
For the old times sake. .
He asks for the number. .
She gives.
For the old times sake. .
He piles on further,
She stares blank.
For the old times sake. .
He tries to reach out to her,
She retreats.
For the old times sake. .
He goes to his knees. .
And she walks past her past.
For the old times sake. .
