Description
heart·ache /ˈhärdˌāk/ noun emotional anguish or grief, typically caused by the loss or absence of someone loved. ////// Alfred had been getting better. Happier, more honest. He had become a healthy weight and was finally able to stop taking his anti-depressants. He had finally gotten past that part of his almost-eternal life. Or so he- no. Everybody thought. But something began to go wrong. A sudden wave of sadness and pain sent him thrown back into the darkness. Each time he tried to escape, he was thrown farther in. He falls back into his old ways, hiding his sadness, purging his stomach of food. All because of someone he called his friend. ////// The way they looked at each other... All the progress I had made in the past four months had crumbled at the sight. Then, my stomach churned at what happened next. They kissed. I could practically feel my heart cracking, breaking as if the Russian himself crushed it. I thought he liked me... I almost whimpered aloud. I turned my back on them before they could realize my presence, and disappeared into the crowd.
