Deanna's PoV

I can't sleep. For some reason, I just can't.

I tried to count sheeps, I got into a thousand but I still couldn't fall asleep.

I tried to drink milk before going to bed but still didn't work.

I buried my head onto my pillow and groaned.

This sheet has been going on for. DAYS.

I only get to sleep at 5 a.m just to wake up at 6. These past few sleepless days is making me all grumpy. Like yesterday, I bumped into a drunk girl and shouted at her, I felt guilty but I couldn't careless at the time since I'm just itching to go to bed already after a long day.

I groaned again. I looked up to my ceiling and and just closed my eyes. Maybe this would help.

It didn't.

But I later heard something as I was trying to sleep,

"I know it's been a while since our eyes last met."

With the first sentence sang, my mind went blank, nothing on it but the angelic voice singing.

"Too many words were left unsaid"

And with the second sentence sang, I fell asleep without noticing.

Jema's PoV

My girlfriend just broke up with me. My soulmate, my future wife and my life.

Turns out, she's been with the love of her life for half the years I thought we're together. She's been with her for 2 years.

I just couldn't believe it. She didn't plan on telling me in the first place. If I didn't caught her.. I would've still believed in our relationship.

I cried. I cried as I packed my clothes and things. I'm leaving our house and luckily, I had a place to move into.

I cried. I cried as I walk with my luggage, I cried as I recall our memories while I walk through the lane of loneliness.

I cried as I arrived at my new room. A condominium far away from her.

I decided, I might meet them in clubs, since Fhen loved going there, so I'll drink my ass off in my new room. I probably need to buy a lot of alcohol if I'm gonna get wasted.

I layed down on my bed and slept with thoughts of forgetting about her.

The next day I woke up with swollen eyes. I didn't bother doing my make up or choosing my clothes, I just went out and bought alcohol.

I cried again. But this time, I was drinking alcohol. My room was filled with my sobs and rants. It made me feel more pitiful. So I decided I'll just sing my heart away.

As I close my door, someone bumped into me, I couldnt see who or what they looked like, I just hang my head low. I heard some shoutings but it was all gibberish so I shrugged it off and went to the lobby to ask for videoke stuff. They said they'll fix it in the morning so I went back to my room.

I cried and slept with the thoughts of where did I go wrong?

The next morning, I went to the grocery for essentials as the staffs arrange the videoke for me.

It was night when I came back home. Home.. I teared up with the word. Home used to be her. She was home. But now, I'm here alone in this unfamiliar room, alone and broken.

Instead of crying my eyes out for the who knows how many days, I thought of a song that I'd sing. I thought of singing something a bitter would sing, something to make myself feel better.

But I chose the song "Take her to the moon" I realized, that before myself, I want her to be happy.

"I know it's been a while since our eyes last met, too many words were left unsaid.."

I thought I could manage it, I thought I can sing a song without sobbing but I did. Singing those words gave me a heartbreak. Everything reminds me of her.

Deanna's PoV

I think I like her. The girl singing all those sad songs. I'm sure it might weird people out since I've never met her or anything but, just her voice alone made me like her. I feel like I've known her story just by listening to her sing. Her voice captivated me.

Man up! I thought to myself. Knock on her door and introduce yourself.

And so I did. When she opened her door, her slightly swollen eyes met up with mine. Her brown orbs filled with unreadable emotions.

"Hi my name's Deanna, I was just wondering if you'd like to

Done

Sorry to leave you guys hanging but I cant write awkward introductions kisbjsixjslx
