>>Little do you know how I'm breaking while you fall asleep little do you know I'm still haunted by the memories little do you know I'm trying to pick myself up piece by piece<<

I was broken. I still am broken. I haven't left my room in three days. My phone buzzed every few minutes but I didn't bother to answer it. I cried for hours. And when I finally stopped I'd just stare at the ceiling until I started thinking about him again and then I'd start crying all over again. I've missed three days of classes. I was on my fourth day. Maya was worried. I knew she was. She texted me many times but I couldn't bring myself to answer. So many calls, texts, emails, but none from the one person I needed to speak to the most.

I haven't seen him. I don't know where he is. All I know is he doesn't call or text. Doesn't come over. I guess we really were done.

I let out yet another sob and I shook under my covers.
I knew I had to actually get out and get back to classes but I just couldn't. I couldn't risk seeing him. I'm broken.

People continued to text and call over the weekend.

"What?! Just leave me alone!!" I snapped answering my phone not even bothering to check who was calling.

"No can do, sis. Maya called me. What's been happening, Ari." My brothers voice rang through the speaker of my phone. I let out a sob hearing the nickname HE used to use.
"Aria? Talk to me. It's all going to be okay. Tell me what's wrong or tell me the word and I'll be in the next flight out to you." Jason sounded concerned and sad.

I took a shaky breath.
"We broke up." My voice sounded rough and gruff. I'm surprised I hadn't lost my voice from all the sobful cries.

"I'm so sorry, Aria. Do you want me to come? I can call mom too. We're here for you."

"No,no. Not mom. You don't need to come. I'm gonna get up early tomorrow and actually get to class. I need to move on." I shut my eyes as more tears fell.

"Do you want to talk about it? I can get my laptop and we can Skype?" He suggested.

"That'll be nice. You're the only person I've spoke to in days,Jason." I whispered.

"I'll call you in a sec." And he hung up.

My laptop next to me, which has been my partner since we broke up, beeped and I answered. I've been watching every possible movie I could find.

Jason's face appeared on the screen.

"When last have you left your room, Aria?" He scrunched up his nose taking in my appearance.

"Monday. I haven't left since we broke up. Jason, I'm broken. Please help me" I whispered breaking down into yet another sob.

"Shhh. Aria. You can't be like this. People break up all the time. You can't do this to yourself. When last have you eaten? You look sick." Jason said bluntly.

"I'm not hungry." I groaned hiding further away under my blankets.

"Bullshit! You can't feel sorry for yourself. He broke up with you. This is when you shove it in his face."
