Chapter 39

• I remained in there. I crawled to bed and put my chin on it. I set the flashlight to the wall and stare at it. My lips form a thin line as I stared at it. None of your affection will affect me now Desmond. I am truly broken. I don't think I'll be able to trust you ever again. You have shattered me in such a miserable way that I can't even trust my delusions. You are successful in breaking my heart and soul. You even crushed all my optimistic facades- along with those dreams I treasured deeply. Everything is ruined and my heart is in an isolated place with no intentions of redemption.
• I blinked and put my hand in the air. My hand shadow cast on the wall. I began to move my hand in random positions to cast different shadows. I chuckle to myself as I got lost in that. I form a half heart because my other hand was holding the phone. I smiled a little at the incomplete heart, it's just like my dreams.. incomplete.
• My mouth gaped when my heart was completed with someone else hand. A shadow of a complete heart cast on the wall. My hand is so small as compared to that hand. I turned and saw Desmond sitting beside me. He smiled at me. I quickly pulled my hand away and stood up. I grabbed my phone from the bed. I walked past him but, he held my wrist. I stopped as the lights came back. I turned to him and slowly lift my gaze to meet his Silver eyes that are filled with deep regret and desperation. He was devastated from stress. I look at him emotionlessly as he narrowed his eyes in a begging manner.
