Fire and Ice

"You see this glass in my hand?"
(Releases it from her grip)
"See that?
It shatters into pieces as soon as you let go.
That's you. The glass.
You will break once I leave because you aren't worth it."
He laughs. Bitterly. His laughter booms across the corridors. She is far gone now, he is aware of that. That's what he wanted. She needs to go. After all this time, he is now sensible enough not to trigger her demons, because he knows what awaits him if that happens. So, he continues listening to her. He stands there stock still, like a statue made of ice, but her words burn him like fire.
"Wanna know what will happen then?
Your heart will become the glass.
Weak.
Brittle.
Shattered into million pieces.
And what's more, you deserve it."
Saying so, with the last look at him , his coal black eyes and the traces of hurt that he fails to hide behind those mesmerizing orbs.
She walks away.
And He let goes of her.
