'Come back', she pleaded, silently in her heart. But all she could do, was to stand there and watch him walk away. The mild swagger in his gait, it took all she had to remain standing.
It was all imaginary. He did not mean to be cruel. Her icy exterior made him belive she was ok. Her calm facade led him to think they were on the same wavelength. Little did he know. How would he have known, anyway? He believed himself to be a nice guy. She believed it too.
She just wanted an excuse to make him the bad one. Anything to heal her broken heart. He walked off, leaving her standing there alone. As he rounded the corner, her legs gave way, and she crumpled in an unsightly heap on the floor.
No tears fell. She had cried enough of them. Her heart was numb to this feeling, already. There was only one other who had broken her heart so, but at this point of time, it did not matter. There was only one for her. And he had just walked himself out of her life.
