Bellezza

We all see that photo of your current with that ex. That you never knew nor met, yet heard so much about. So what happens if when you see that photo and to be honest, you're not really impressed. She's not a beauty, she not even "a roide". Yet she is pretty, and there is something...

What if your current once said (long, long ago) that he thought she was the most beautiful thing he'd ever seen? But you know you're "prettier" than her right? Or at least you conceive to be.
True that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and that love is blind...but we still have common sense. We know the difference between pretty and beautiful, and average and gorgeous. So, what is it that our emotions do? Do we still look back and see the person we saw once before? Or, do we see a new person, someone you almost never knew.

What also, if your best friend who you'd confess this sort of troubling yet trivial matter with is overseas, leaving you with that plum-sized pit of sickness at the bottom of your stomach. Bother, that.

But of course, these questions are all rhetorical...
