The heartbreak, you expect. The tears and the unread texts are just byproducts. But none of those things can be prepared for. The absolute heart wrenching pain every time you see their face. The way you feel like screaming when you’re left alone with nobody to comfort you.

Evony tried to hold back the tears as Alisa boarded the train without a single look back. At that moment, she hated herself. All the unsaid words she would never have a chance to say. Alisa was leaving to go to a boarding school in Europe (the exact location was not disclosed as Alisa’s parents hated Evony and wanted her to stay in America, far away from their daughter) and all contact with Evony was to be severed.

She let a tear slip down her face, quickly wiping it away with the back of her hand. This was it.

Evony was in a daze as she made her way back home. As the front door shut behind her, she nearly slid to the floor as the tears come pouring out in heavy sobs. What was left now?

Letting Alisa leave the worst thing she could’ve done. Now she was alone and that realization knocked her off of her feet as she collapsed to her knees, broken weeps emanating from her lips.
