Can You Mend My Broken Heart?

She stood there like she was glued to the floor . Her eyes couldn"t believe what just happened in front of her . He had told her that he was returning back in the morning . And here he was playing with a blondie . She felt like she was nothing for him, meant nothing to him .

Anthony was shocked to see her at his place . He immediately released his grip around the blondie and ran towards Akira . He tried to hold her arms and explain the situation to her but the moment he touched her hands, she took a step back and shook her head . She didn"t want to hear about any explanations, she didn"t want to hear anything at all . She felt like she had made a fool of herself .

She held her tears at bay . She took her purse and dashed out . He ran behind her but before he could catch her she was already seated in a taxi . He pounded on the taxi door but she sat inside nonchalantly . The driver asked her a couple of times as where she wanted to go, but she had no destination in her mind . She had no place to go . She had come here to make Anthony"s house her home . So after a pause, she asked the driver to go to the airport .

Her phone was buzzing non-stop . She was being flooded with messages from Anthony . But she didn"t even care to take a look . She wanted to shout at him, wanted to question him "Why", but she didn"t . The pain was building up, with every pa.s.sing moment it was intensifying, making it unbearable for her .

"Pain demands to be felt" . John Green had said it right .

She gasped for air for a while and tried hard to control . But then she caved in . She started crying her eyes out . Never did she think in her wildest dreams that stuff like betrayal and heartbreak would happen to her . With a heavy heart she started to ponder, "Where did I go wrong . Where did I lack?"

They both were students of graphic design at the University of Cincinnati, just that he was one year senior . They met each other at a technology conclave arranged at their University . Then one thing led to another and before she knew, she was head over heels in love with him . She literally doted on him and did everything possible to please him . When she would come to stay at his place she would do his odd ch.o.r.es, clean his house, get the grocery and all the mundane jobs . She did it out of love because in her head she had already visualized themselves getting married and growing old together . So no matter how many times her brother Mike would ask her to get a hold of herself she won"t listen .

Now she was honestly regretting . She should have listened to her brother . Maybe she made it too easy . Maybe he took her for granted . All these rampant thoughts were killing her bit by bit . She was so much devoted to him that she didn"t even care about the world around her as for her he was her whole world . She was a witty and pretty girl and there were many guys who ran after her in college, but she never even budged an inch . She never entertained anyone else apart from Anthony .

A bit later she realized that she had left all her luggage at Anthony"s place and was traveling to the Airport in her pajamas and slippers . She sighed . It was dead in the night and the only thing running in her mind was to get away from this place . She wanted to go home and bury herself in her bed . She wanted to run to her brother and hug him . The foreign land which felt like home to her a couple of hours ago felt like a war front .

She sighed and retracted herself back from the painful memory and looked at her watch .

"13 more hours to go . "
