The Dawn Of Awakening

"Why? Why are you doing this to me? Haven't I given you everything you want?"

"I don't want your meaningless gifts, I don't want your distasteful flattery, and most of all I don't want you," he said while turning his back.

I looked at him hoping to catch a glimpse of remorse in what he said. I bit my lip to fight back the tears. I loved him so much, how can he just throw away whatever we had just like that? Like a million pieces of glass, my heart shattered onto the ground. My whole world was crumbling around me.

"You said you loved me. What happened that made you take back whatever you said?"

He shifted his head and looked at me with the corner of his left eye and said, "I never said I loved you."

Digging my fingernails deep into my fist, I pounded the marble floor. The tears unleashed itself and started to fall onto the ground. I couldn't breathe. My whole body jerked each time I tried to breathe. I could hear myself crying out loud, yet I couldn't control it. He's hurting me and I couldn't understand why. How can someone I gave my heart, my body, my soul to be so cruel?

"Cry all you want. But don't think that you can use tears as a weapon against my conscience. If you haven't already noticed, I don't have any."

My eyes were blurry from the tears. I looked up to see his back heading towards the door. I wanted to stop him but my legs wouldn't respond. I lifted up my right arm and tried to grab a hold of him, his jeans, his shirt, anything I could to stop him from walking out of my life. I opened my mouth and his name came out with a shriek.

"Ethan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The sound of the door closing echoed in the still room.
