Karina

You and Karina had been a couple for several years, even though neither of you was the other's type. You tried to convince yourselves that you were happy in the relationship, even though it wasn't true, and after a long time, you decided to accept that there was no real love between you and ended things.
Although you ended things amicably, you never spoke again. As time passed, you found someone you truly loved, someone who was your type, while Karina began to doubt whether you really weren't her type or if she simply hadn't been ready to love you. Every day that went by, Karina kept asking herself the same question: Why couldn't she move on as easily as you had? Similarly, you had doubts about your past with Karina, and there were times when you wondered if it was a good idea to reach out to her. However, you were too afraid that Karina wouldn't feel the same way, so you decided not to make a move. One day, you bumped into each other by chance at a shopping mall. Your eyes met, and you stared at each other for a few seconds until you nervously looked away. Karia stared at you, feeling a little embarrassed, just like you. She wanted to go over and talk to you, but she didn't think it was a good idea. She stood there for what seemed like hours, though it was only a minute, before she approached you slowly and somewhat uncertainly. "Hi... I didn't think I'd see you like this again," she said, pausing briefly, as if she were about to change her mind.
"Sorry if this is awkward, I just... wanted to say hello."
