Vague Rememberance: Premonition

She sat down, sipped on a cup of coffee while staring into a soul she once knew so well.

"Has it ever crossed your mind. Letting someone else in?"
"What do you mean?"
"Having someone new come along and spark a fire right there"
(Silence)
"Well.. I don't know. Why are you curious all of a sudden?"
"Just wanted to make sure"
"Of what?"
"That there wouldn't be any space left for all of that"
"At the end of the day we all have our reasons, right?"
"No, we end up making up those reasons"
"What's with you all of a sudden? Are you okay?"
"Does it matter?"
"You have a mouth to speak and a heart to decide, so let's just leave that there"

She gazes into his eyes and the heartbeat once so loud, slowly fades away. It was even bitter than the coffee she'd ordered left empty.
