Dejected (Short Story)
"Let me tell you something, Baron!" I spatted with all the resentment I could muster at that time because I can never hate him, not even if I want to. He kept his hard stare on me. "A relationship without trust is like having a phone with no service! All you can do is play games" I continued. "You never trusted me, did you? You believed him for what he told you about me when you know me better than anyone!" I said through gritted teeth, letting the tears cascade my face. "We were bound to fall apart!" I closed my eyes before wiping my tears away. "I hate you! I am now singularly focused on your impending suffering" His words hit me like bullets and without sparing a glance at me, he left.
