Harmony, he had said, I’m done with this relationship. And where did that leave me? I thought bitterly. My sudden anger didn’t last long though.

“What?” I had asked stupidly, and realized I sounded so very pathetic. “I thought …”
His face then twisted as if he looked sick by my accusation; as if he couldn’t possibly believe I had just said those words to him, like he did not love me- never did. My heart shattered on spot as I slowly undestood.

“I lied,” he told me.

My mouth had dropped and all the air my lungs held at that moment whooshed out in the most awkward way leaving me breathless. I remeber not liking this loss of breath compared to the other times. He always took my breath away, but never like this. I didn’t want this. He then walked away, leaving me stranded and heartbroken on the sidewalk.What a man.

And now I’m still on th sidewalk. Just lying here. Someone please save me. I simply can’t seem to move my feet or think about anything except those two deadly words… he lied.
