A Brief Tale of Heartbreak

A nonet describing a breakup.

By CT IdlehousePublished 2 years ago 1 min read

Text: I miss you. Teary face emoji. Three hearts.

Checkmark, seen at 11:30pm. I roll my eyes.

Text back: I don't miss you. Send.

Answer: Then why text me back?

That's a damn good question.

I hesitate in answering.

Not worth it.

I'm done.

Block.
