It washed over her like the silent waves of the ocean crashing onto the shore.
Her depression started to sink in.
Slowly, she switched off her phone and closed all the curtains and doors and sat on the stairs.
Waiting for the darkness to consume her.
For death to come and take her too.
But it never came, instead that dreaded feeling of loneliness was the only thing she felt. The fear that she will be loved by no one. That she will always be abandoned. That everyone will leave her.
Hours had passed.
She woke to the sound of banging fists on the door. Startling her, she got up and slowly unlocked the door, but before she could even look, a pair of arms engulfed her. Chasing away the loneliness, the anxiety and filling her heart with joy.
She didn't even have to look up to know it was him.
