Dylan had left the club with Kira who had retired to bed already leaving him alone with his thoughts, it was not the safest place for him to be at the moment, especially after everything that had taken place moments before their flight.

"you hardly spend time with me, granted I am busy but I always make time for you, shower you with love and affection what more could I possibly do to show you that I love you rissa?" she had nothing to say to him any way she only dated him out of pity but she was never in love with him, she enjoyed the attention that he had given the spoils you could say that she enjoyed the perks of being with him with a heavy sigh " Dylan this isn't going to work out anymore I am moving anyway so we should end things here instead of dragging whatever this is further". he was shocked even though he saw it coming taking in a deep breath "goodbye" and with that, he walked away and he knew that he won't ever turn back. Merissa wanted him to beg her if she enjoyed the power she has over him or if had she knew how he felt about her and used it to her advantage.

mind becoming heavy his head hung low as the memory played on repeat, soon the bitter tears made their appearance known it had been years since he had cried like this and even though he vowed never to feel this way again he had no control this time, he loved for as long as he could remember always boasting about what an amazing she was he was so blinded that he failed to see the type of person she truly was.

but his sister did, even though she never told him and tried to be civil he always knew that she had her reservations about the girl, it did not matter his sister had been right, staring at the open sky as he sat by the doorway of his room he felt a hand gently nudging him, he knew from the presence need itself that it was the person he needed the most his comfort space.

"i loved her for the last 6 years I did nothing but love her, and it still was not enough, leaving me on read, hardly chatting only messaging to remind me about our dates other than that I was invisible, I guess I was just the boyfriend for the title, and the perks that came with it. I worked so damn hard to become someone, I pushed myself past breaking point and all for what to become a weak ass mess again, I lost myself so many times, my life was always hard no matter how hard I tried I kept feeling like I never was enough and now I feel like that broken version of myself all over again I feel like a waste of space like I'm useless all over again" the crack in his voice was all she needed to feel herself burning up, pinching the bridge of her nose willing herself to calm down.

"so what now? cry if you must, scream if you must, swear if you must but my brother does not need worthless shit like this, useless? waste of space? Since when did you the great and resilient Dylan allow one meek shallow person have so much control over him? love you say? was it love when she used to leave you one seen? was it love when she left you for delivered for days on end? was it love if she would have her phone constantly on her and still choose not to text or call you? was it love when all she ever did was make dates so she could show of to her friends that she was dating one of the most eligible bachelors? so how can you call it love? weird how everyone's understanding of love is so different is it not? wow just wow have you seen yourself you could have girls crawling on their knees, remember all the talks we used to have as teens? wanting to live the good life and have great cars? travel? even if it meant it was just us two? remember how you used to comfort me telling me I'm too good of a person to deal with shit like this? what about you? you are an amazing brother you put up with me even on days I could not tolerate myself you tolerated me... I know it's hard I know you loved her but you deserve so much more than half-ass love like I said think of this as a new beginning for you and I promise when the time is right you will meet the person that loves you....now we are on vacation I do not expect to see you moping, I brought you'll here to enjoy yourselves so that's exactly what you are going to do" hugging him and giving him comfort was what Kirti did next she knew the type of person her brother was.

he would bottle up how he felt in order not to seem bothersome but the mere fact that he had cried in front of her was enough to let her know how much this had hurt him, she wish she could take the pain away but this was something he had to heal on his own.

"what would I do without you, you piece of shit" the chuckle that left his mouth eased her a bit knowing that it was not fake," I ask myself that every day, you should get some rest it's late and we have things to do tomorrow" he nodded and made his way inside his room.

Kirti knowing that her sleep patterns had been messed up for a while decided to stargaze, eyes becoming droopy she fell asleep on the lounging chair.
