STORM.

☹nine

"i'll facetime you again later tonight."

"don't." if the word hadn't hurt enough your expression certainly did.

i was confused.

we called each other every night.

what was different?

were you still mad?

"look, it's just- there's this girl i'm talking to and she thought we were dating, so maybe we should just stay away from each other for a bit."

i forced a smile to my lips and nodded my head.

a person can only pretend so much.

so, instead of saying anything else and carrying on with listening to your problems i ended the call.

you tried to call again but i denied it.

i'll listen to your worries and struggles all you want.

i'll give you advice and act as if my life was perfectly fine so you won't have to hear my rant.

i'll do anything for you and you know this.

but that doesn't mean i'll sit here silently breaking while you talk about your new girlfriend.

it hurts me too much.
