He sat there on the floor, unable to believe that such a thing happened to him. The confession that his heart was yearning to listen to was brought to him all decorated in a platter, but the thing was it had been destroyed into a mulch. Even though he heard her say those three golden words, it pinched his heart and pierced through his very soul.
His heart was broken into pieces and he wasn't even sure if he would ever be able to mend it back.
He couldn't gather up even a single bit of courage to get up. He didn't even possess a morsel of strength to imagine a life without her. In just past few days, she had become his lifeline and without her, he had no idea how he could survive.
He was lost in his thought when he heard a knock on the door and heard David's voice.
"Come in !!!", he said.
David entered the room and saw Raymond sitting miserably on the floor. He had seen Akira leaving his room and he understood what was going through his heart.
