She was heartbroken.
But every morning she straightened her hair, applied her eyeliner, put on her Uggs, Hollister skinny jeans, and Abercrombie sweatshirt, and left for school, a fake smile on her face.
But one morning,
she surrendered. She left her hair in a messy bun, washed off all her makeup, put on sweat pants and an old T-shirt, and left for school in tears, ready to break down at any moment.
And the only one who noticed?
Him. The reason for her tears. And at the end of the day, when he asked her what was wrong, all she was able to say was,
"You're gone."
