Just like any other night, I stood in front of the open window. The cool night breeze hit my face, making the curtain and my hair flow back.
I looked up at the night sky with no single star in sight. Just the moon and its bright light radiating across the world.
I planted my hands on the windowsill, taking a deep breath. It had been a while. I thought once I was alone, I would bawl my eyes and recall the past. Surprisingly, I didn't.
"It's just heavy, moon," I whispered, opening my eyes to see the moon shining so soothingly in this darkness. "My heart... feels heavy."
A weary smile dominated my face as my eyes softened in sadness. Hugo was the person I sought, the love of my life, and the only man I had loved so deeply it was painful. Knowing he was doing well without me was akin to a dagger stuck in my chest.
"I should be happy for him," I muttered. "You should be happy for him, Rinnie. You should."
I wasn't.
