Hitherto

"Why don't You just tell me about it" He asked.
"Please not now" she muttered, as she tried to choke in the tears "I uhm, I'm in a bad place mentally right now"


He watched as she turned and walked away, feeling helpless. He wished he could access what was going on in that Head of Hers- this stubborn Mule of his!
It took every willpower not to run into his arms- only place she'd felt safe in recent times. I can't always do that she uttered under her breath, one day he might not be there anymore (she shook her head as though to erase the possibility)*sniffs*. She pulled out her handkerchief to wipe off the errant teardrops.


Why why why do I endure all these? She thought to herself
"You always pour your soul into the lives of others and you end up like this! when will You understand humans are selfish"- an inner voice said.
"People will always throw your flaws and mistakes in your face"
No! she didn't realize she'd said that out loud, until a street urchin gave her quite an unusual stare. She started to laugh at how silly she must appear at this moment- shoulders dropped, eyes red, mascara smudged, a Shoe in hand and sniffing from all the sobbing.
*sighs* you know what you must do- that voice again. This time she agreed as she'd been thinking the same thing.


Home, I'll go home. There's nothing here for me anymore- she thought. Home is where I always fit in- where I can always be myself, even when I'm sometimes clumsy- It's okay.
Yes, yes she thought and almost tap danced as she thought about it. She picked up her Phone and sent her a message: hiatus.


"huh?" the recipient replied.
"I'm done, thanks for your hospitality- I'm going back to Mum's" She almost spat the words.
... Then came the barrage of phone calls/I.Ms/texts. 
Alas, it was too late
