Part 3 is finally up! I'm so sorry for the delay, It's my first year of being out on my own, and have been busy with my studies! Also being home with my family has been eventful so I've been pretty busy!

Anyways, hope you enjoy!

Alone,

Cold.

That's all you have felt for the past year.

You have been living in your house which is crumbling apart.

The wooden base rotting slowly as you drag your feet across the cold wooden boards of the interior.

You stagger towards the closest wall, touching the wallpaper gently, which is now so brittle and fragile from the lack of heat that the house consumes, mixed with the dampness of the rotting wood, that it cracks by even the brush of your finger .

You sigh. Remembering the moment when your father first put up the wallpaper.

You were only two years old.

The pasting and the pure labour that he went through to make the home look fairly decent was atrocious.

'Maybe that's why he left..' you thought.

You walk up the steps trying not to fall due to the amount of layers on your body.

Without any source of ventilation for months you have been wearing layers and layers of clothing to keep yourself alive.

You haven't left the property at all because you were afraid that when you come back, the house would disappear.

There was nowhere else to go.

You couldn't go to Thomas. He is with his loving wife, who he seems very fond of, and you would not ever ruin that for him.

He's finally found love and is as happy as can be, while you're stuck here wallowing in your own misery.

It isn't fair.

But I guess your life is just filled with unfairness.

You never realized how awful your life was until you thought of everything you lost.

Safe Shelter.

Your mother.

Mr McKinley.

Love.

Thomas..

It all meant so much to you. And knowing that you will soon have to leave your childhood home and find better shelter and venture out on your own after months of confinement made you extremely anxious.

The art of letting go is not easy, but it is just something that you will have to pursue with, if you want to be in healthy and fairly happy shape.

But you couldn't stop thinking about Thomas and the events of departure between you two.
You remember him coming to the house, which was a lot less in shambles.

You confessed your love to him and he kissed you, obviously kissing back, he rejected your offer with many statements of reason.

"I have a loving wife, and we are more happier than ever! I can't have you in the way of that."

"W-what?" You say in shock, as he starts to walk away.

"You know I didn't mean it like that." He says.

"No, I know exactly what you meant, see I thought you actually cared about me, but I guess I was wrong."

"You know I care about you Y/n, we can't be doing this. We will never be more than friends."
