You don't even like me, remember? That's what I try to say. What actually comes out of my mouth is closer to a baby's first attempt at babbling. Shh. He runs his fingertips along my cheek, caressing my face. Hush. I'm right here. He looks at me with deep anguish in his eyes. Like there's so much he wants to tell me but feel it's too late now. I want to stroke his face and tell him that it will be okay. That everything will be all right. And I wish so badly that it would be.
