Another sob threatens to break free in his chest when he sees her literally dim at that rejection. It's almost enough to make him change his mind. But he... can't. He can't. He needs to be alone. He can't face her kindness anymore.
"Yes," he manages to croak. "I'll see you. O-okay?" He hopes so too.
He just needs some time. He needs to crawl into a corner and cry himself into a numb sleep. All of this pain is too much. He can't take it. So, as she leaves, he rolls over on the bed and curls in around himself, knees tucked as tight to his chest as he can get them. He'll stay like that, letting quiet tears drain down his face, for as long as it takes to stop feeling this.
i hurt myself :]
