TWO BROKEN HEARTS AND A CUP OF TEA

 


When two broken hearts met over a cup of tea, the newly heartbroken asked “will it ever become easier?…..I mean the pain”

“Well actually it never really leaves” said the girl who has been single for too long. So long that she had forgotten how a companionship feels like.

“It stays and then transforms into various things”

“What things?” he asked

 

She had closed her eyes, as if introspecting her soul. And when she opened her eyes again, it looked as if all the sorrow from deep within had rushed to her eyes looking in for an escape.

“ When you pour a cup of tea and it outflows, when you burn your chicken, when you throw an important piece of paper while the trash is still on your desk, when you cant decide what to eat for dinner for hours, when your eyes are tired but you can’t sleep, when you cant get up from your bed 24 hours straight not even to pee, when you reach a door ajar expecting it to open on its own and them slam it so hard that even the door asks you ‘why?’, when you don’t know what to do with the day anymore or the night… and all this keeps coming back to you.” She said while outpouring her tea.

“It looks like it is never going to leave” he said.

 She smiled “but the best thing is that you will get used to it”
