"Zayn, I don't want to talk about this anymore." Annoyance was evident in Mona's voice as she strutted away from the dark haired man, drawing more and more into herself with each click of her heels.
"Mona, please wait!" Zayn pleaded, grabbing her wrist and spinning her around to face him. "Just let me explain."
"There's nothing to explain Malik." She shot him an icy glare. "What's done is done, now just let me walk away with at least some of my dignity in tact..." she trailed off as her eyes welled up with tears.
"Alright." he allowed Mona's arm to slump down by her side again and watched her slowly become distant from him, physically and mentally.
Mona let her hair fall around her face as she turned onto the zebra crossing and hurriedly walked across without wasting a moment.
One car nearly collided with her but the driver was able to come to a halt just before she crossed their path.
Once on a pavement again, Mona glanced back at the man on the other side of the street who was looking back at her and she shot him a small grin, as if they were strangers with with nothing between them, who were simply sharing a polite smile.
Zayn then turned away and headed for the bus stop leaving both himself and Mona wondering if they would ever see each other again.
