he could not tolerate the pain
anymore. The pain was injected by a realization and the retaliation bothered her
heart. Heart, on the other hand, blurred her mind to accept the reality. The
reality seemed surreal; so tears poured down her eyes. Her eyes continued to
stare at the vacuum. Then, vacuum spread all through her body. Her body
shivered. The shiver made her feel weak. The weakness made her feel vulnerable. The vulnerability
made her feel alone. Loneliness pricked her and she missed him.
Why did he love me? Why did he walk
away? Why is he scared of commitment?
Unanswered questions haunted her.
She poured a glass of brandy and let
the bitterness of the drink forget her bitter-sweet experiences that life threw
at her.
The innocent mock-tail-loving li’l
girl seemed to have lost…
And she didn’t attempt to retrieve
her…
Heartbreaks can be painful ... but then, with time, things tend to get back to normal :-)

DeleteFor the comment and the prompt!
I attempted to leave a comment before but it vanished in an instant! Well, I want you to know you are very talented and I enjoyed this technique of writing. It is almost like building a pyramid using a word from the previous sentence and using words as the mortar to write your piece. Very clever and good writing! Thank you so much! Nan Falkner

Hoping to see you more around...
