Break up saga

"Will you miss me after today?" She asked.

"I will try not to, but you know.."I choked as my eyes watered.

Suddenly , the hard reality was drawing upon me. This, the very woman standing right before me, will be going away forever from my life, from tommorow. I won't see her long hair, silly laughs, cute anger, jealousy, possesiveness. She would take away everything, everything would come to an end finally.

"Ya continue", she said.

"I know I would miss you, miss you a lot, because every morning ,from tommorow, I would look into the phone for your early morning text and then realise and laugh to conceal my pain। I would miss calling you up whenever I feel unhappy, sad or depressed in life, because you are my oxygen.

" You know this society beleives that men don't cry, men get over quick, but reality is men do cry ,with their pillow being the only silent witness . Men do cry a lot for the woman they love, yes they do cry....yes they do.." I was starting to fumble again.

She was observing me all this time silently. Then finally she uttered: "But, don't you think we would be happy if we separate on good terms?".

Me:"will you be happy?"

She:" yes, I think so, yes"

Me:" Then I would also be happy, because I have always wanted to see you happy, even at the cost of my personal pain, so bye and take care."

I closed my eyes finally as my world started to dissapear right in front of me.
