The smile on my face was slowly falling off. We were hugging just seconds ago until a sharp sting hit my chest. I didn't have to look down to know what happened. His eyes showed it.

It held anger. An emotion I never knew he could feel. Those warm eyes I fell for were the same thing I was dreading to see. I lifted my hands to touch his face despite my blurry vision.

This is not him. It can never be him! Was I a fool to not know his intentions? Is this what I deserve for trusting his words against my friend's?

"W- why", a sob broke out when the heaviness of that word hit me hard. He did not just hurt my heart figuratively but literally as well.

Why. A single word that held endless answers. Did I really want to know that? Or did I want to leave this world still having him as my most precious person?

He let out a mocking laughter that soon turned into angry tears. "You-", he started but I was quick to place my hand over his lips. "Don't. J- just hold me one last time. P- please".

I craved his warm arms to embrace me. I could have been selfish but my love was selfless. Maybe it's stupid of me to still want the person who snatched my life to hold me but no one would understand. I wanted to leave with him still being the cheerful, bespectacled boy I saw in school.

But wishes were never meant to be true for me. Not only did I lose the fantasy world I created with him, I lost the chance of taking my last breath on his lap.

As I crumpled to the ground with his push, I watched him crouch down. Holding my chin with his bloody fingers, he spoke. "I hate-".

I exhaled the last breath I was holding onto.
