I stare right into the gloomy void of nothingness, my eyes burning as they stay on the verge of tears, my face red hot to the touch as my vision becomes nothing more than a blur. This wasn't the first of my heartbreaks that I've had to get over but this was the most difficult as my heart had involuntarily been hers.

My mind begins to wonder where did I go wrong? am I good enough? only hurting myself more with questions that will always remain unanswered.

Suddenly there was a knock at the door and I already being annoyed simply just ignored it but the knocking did not stop, as the consistent knocking continued almost ready to open the door and tell whoever is behind it to leave me alone.

Is there something that important that they must continue on with the horrendous knocking? unfortunately, my impatient visitor uninvitingly enters my safe haven of a bedroom.

Lazily I raise my head ready to throw something, but it only reveals my mother Helen who wanted to see me we look at one another in the silence of my room "are you okay?" mum asks me in curiosity I immediately burst into tears, her answer already given.

She quickly closes the door rushing to pull me into her welcoming embrace as I cried into her chest I couldn't help but miss the feeling of her playing with my hair as she would whisper sweet nothings. I push everyone away I had involuntarily realised that whenever something good happens I ruin it.

My breathing only becoming harsher just shy of hiccups, I raise my hand to the back of my mother's head to play with her long chocolate locks our bodies now rocking back and forth. "Shh dear, you're alright mommies here love" she hushed my cries in the most comforting way "m-mom" I wanted so badly to tell her but couldn't quite find the right words "there's no rush dear" once again.

Before I knew it we had been sitting as she consoled me for half an hour I had calmed down quite a bit my mother pulled my face away from her chest cradled with both hands wiping my tears gently "can I know what got you so upset please?" barely above a whisper.

Wiping my nose nodding "I-I like girls momma'' I finally admitted but scanning her face was an excruciating pain ''I'm so proud of you, thank you for telling me'' she kissed my forehead as I released a breath I didn't know I had been holding. "But thats not all is it?" she pushed to which I only responded with a slight movement of my head ''I was dating a girl a-and she cheated on me w-with a-a boy" I cried clutching onto her chest ''oh love'' she pulled me in once more ''we could beat her up?" she offered ''oh or we could egg and tp her house?" I couldn't help but giggle at her words. My mom my best friend my laughter caught onto my mother once it died down she kissed my head "out of all the things my hands have held you are the best" she admitted looking down at my now half-asleep figure.
