shattered

chapter 3

-Adam-

I see her sitting in front of me, her eyes closed, her head tilted upwards like she was looking at the ceiling but with her eyes closed. she looked...she looked exhausted, but not just physically. it's like she was suffering, struggling with her own thoughts. like she was trying to make peace with her mind but she couldn't.

i couldn't really see her face clearly i can only see her closed eye, although i really wish she'd open them even if it was for a couple of seconds, i just need to see those hazel eyes of hers once again. her eyes held so much hope in them, i don't know what for, but there was so much hope and faith in them. her eyes were the only thing that were shining brightly in her face.

as if she had heard my thoughts she opened her eyes, but she was still looking at the ceiling so i can still see them, i can still see a bit of that beauty that is her eyes. she was lost in her thoughts again in no time. i really need to talk to her. i don't know if i was gonna see her again, this might be my only chance to talk to her. it's now or never.

i got up and walked until i was right next to her table, should i really do this? but it was too late to back out of it. she already noticed me.

i cleared my throat. "uhh... hi" she looked at me but didn't say a word. "i..i'm adam"still, nothing. she said nothing.

i sighed."look i'm sorry for bothering you or anything it's just that i saw you here the other day and i really wanted to talk to you but i didn't get the chance to do so. then i saw you again today and i just decided to come and speak to you. so i'm really sorry again for bothering you." i took a step back and started to walk away leaving her behind, feeling embarrassed and wishing the ground would swallow me, until i heard something that made me stop moving entirely."A-Adam...i'm Rose" she finally spoke to me. her voice was so delicate, angelic. if i could repeat those 3 words a million times i would.
