Bitter Sweet • Solby

☠ Chapter Nineteen ☠

[Sam's p.o.v]
It was a couple hours later. The house still remained silent after the breakdown Colby had earlier. Sometimes I felt so bad for him, I wish I could help. But it was really hard when he pushed away.

I lay silently in my bed. Just staring at the roof of my small bedroom. Sometimes I wondered what life would be like if it had continued the way it was? Like, before Colby became...yknow.

But I knew he couldn't help it.

When I would often go outside when the abuse first started, I tried so hard to hide my tears behind the jacket I wore. Over these past few months though, I learned how to cover it all up with a fake smile.

I haven't really smiled for real in weeks, maybe months.

Because, I felt almost guilty smiling, because Colby couldn't do the same.
