Monday 24th April
Today was the day that Melody had stopped hearing from Kol. He wasn't responding to her texts or answering her calls. Her world fell apart.
She couldn't understand what had gone wrong. Was it what she said in their argument? Was she just not good enough? She kept calling him all day to ask what was going on, why did he just disappear without saying anything. She could feel the pain and ache in her chest. She knew he was going through stuff and she told him that she'd be there for him the last time they spoke but now she definitely knew that he wouldn't have let that happen. She hadn't felt like herself in years, and then when Kol came along she was so happy, she was excited to get texts from him and random phone calls it was amazing.
On one of their phone calls, Kol had said she was the best thing that's happened to her and although he was drunk at the time had begged her not to leave, as Melody was remembering this she knew he didn't remember that conversation. Even after all of this, he left. She questioned herself, was he really in love with her? Why would he leave? Does it mean they're broken up?
Melody felt sick. She didn't have the strength to stand so she sat on her bed. She wanted answers. She kept calling him. After five times and the constant machine telling her to leave a voicemail which she didn't, she gave up. She sat in bed and started crying. As the tears spilled down her cheeks, they carried with them the weight of anguish, each drop held her despair. Her sobs were guttural, torn from the depths of her being as if each one ripped a piece of her soul away. Her chest heaved with the effort of drawing in the air between choked breaths.
Her cries echoed off the walls of the empty room, a haunting melody of pain and despair that seemed to fill the air around her. But it wasn't just the sound of her crying that was agonizing; it was the sight of her, hunched over in agony. Each tear that fell seemed to etch another line of sorrow onto her already weary soul, a silent testament to the depths of her suffering.
This was her first heartbreak.
