" I was 13 and in the December I would turn 14 "
I didn't Know My Life Was about to shift.
Those
Days belonged to silence and routine.
School, Tution, Homework, Sleep.
Leaves falling 🍁 from the trees, the cold wind brushing my face,
Life moving in the same straight line
home to school, school to home, nothing more.
There was nothing extraordinary about those days.
Everything felt predictable, almost numb.
Until One Ordinary Afternoon
I was on my phone, scrolling without meaning.
Half watching some random videos,
Half bored 🥱 with everything around me
Than suddenly a clip flashed across my screen.
A scene from a thai BL drama extremely famous at this time,
I didn't even know what BL meant back then.
I had never stepped into that world.
At first, I ignored it.
No internet, No understanding.
Just another video in an endless feed.
But
It kept appearing again again and again.
Interview clip, edit, smile, romantic scene, tears,
Something inside me whispered "Fine. try Once"
So I searched the drama.
I pressed play.
The beginning felt Confusing, but slowly
Something shifted.
The story pulled me, in scene by scene,
Until I was breathing with it.
The emotions were row, intense, alive, .
In just one day i finished the entire series.
I couldn't stop.
When it ended, I started dark screen
feeling like something inside me cracked open.
Tears come without permission.
Why was i crying over strangers on a screen.
Why did their pain feel like my own heartbreak.
I didn't know.
But something in me had changed forever.
From that day forward. I searched more.
More Drama, more series, more emotion
Thai BL, Korean BL taiwani BL etc.
I devoured everything like oxygen.
Every new series felt like a new world.
New character, New emotion, New feeling,
New reason to believe in Love.
