Picture Me & You- The Perfect Two

18. Broken Pieces

I feel like I'm a cruel person, a heart wrecker. It took me too long to complete this chapter because I hated writing it.

Heartbreak is something you can't describe in words.

This whole chapter is from Rome's POV. It might feel inconsistent. I'm sorry to all those who might hurt reading this.

Being hurt or betrayed by someone you love and trust is.... well I seriously don't know what exactly it feels like. I'm not even sure I can truely portray that and for that I'm sorry.

I hate angst. But it's part of the story. So here it goes.

****

(Sentences starting with 》 are Pick's words to Rome. Just so it doesn't get much confusing, there are events happening around Rome and at the same time he's lost in his own mind. Sometimes conscious to listen but not grasp and sometimes totally zoned out)

"P'Rome... are you okay?"

I...
Am I.... what do I feel?

I think....
I'm....

》'Is this sweet enough?'

Nothing?!

Y..eah!

Nothing....

I feel nothing!

"P'.... pleases say something, talk to me... please!"

Is it Kao?

》'I won't hurt you!'

Nothing!!

I looked into his confused and teary eyes.

"P'Rome... how do you feel now?"

》'I said give me time'

"Empty...."

That's when I heard my sobs.

Why did I cry when I was empty?

MONDAY Morning

I'm in a good mood today😋 Even if he doesn't really work much, P'Pick doesn't usually come to campus since his internship started. But today we'll have lunch together.

'I know I know I was supposed to give myself a break from him but seriously....
Who am I kidding?'

I smiled at all those memories of him. Him resting his head over mine, him holding my shoulder and wiping my tears. And Ofcourse, those tender kisses. We kissed before, twice. But this is...

I laughed remembering him asking for one more time.

'Godddd!!!!
When did I become this love sick puppy?!'
