Breaking You

"It's true when they say that the one who you never expect to hurt you, always does." - Alexander Blackwood.

After an extremely rough past, Alexander had learnt to protect himself from getting hurt again. He showed his façade of being a heartless monster. He didn't care about anyone, it was better that way. That was, until he met her. He took one good look at her and knew that she was the one he was going to fall in love with.

Beautiful as she was on the outside, she always managed to love those who hurt her the most. She was the one who saved Alexander from all his miseries and showed him how beautiful life could be. But she was also the one who broke him in the end, she was the one who tore him apart.

Life does that to us, it shows us how beautiful the world can be, and then, it manages to take it all away. Here's a story of how it all is.
