Every single word you uttered, I treasured. I kept it under lock and key, under the heaps of solicitude I felt for you. I guess I made it all up though, when you looked at her, I fizzled up because I thought you were looking at me. Stupid, delusional me. I thought too much, read too much into every heart breaking look I got from your intensely warm eyes. The last straw though? When I left, away from you and away from everything we had built. Away from the haunting memories. And what hurt the most? 


You didn’t even say bye. 


The author's comments:

101 words. Most shortest heartbreak, but the most fiercest one yet.
