I stared at him in shock, my heart tearing at the seams as he spoke the word without a hint of remorse.
It felt as if the beautiful world I had wrapped around myself, a sanctuary filled with hope and warmth, had suddenly crumbled to the ground, leaving only desolation in its wake.
This unforeseen misfortune was something I could never have prepared for. Just when I had bared my soul to him entirely, surrendering all I had, he chose this moment to shatter everything. Did the bond we shared mean so little to him? The thought of him not even pausing to consider what he was about to do was an unbearable weight on my chest.
Emotion surged within me, a chaotic storm of confusion and despair. I didn't know how to process what I was feeling—the turmoil was like a jumbled mess, and I couldn't even pinpoint when the first tear escaped down my cheek, leaving a trail of cold realization in its wake.
