she looks up and, with a start, realizes she is looking right at him. heat rises up her body and flushes her cheeks as their eyes lock. the noise of the room gently falls away and in this moment, he belongs to her again. her eyes spill out pools of emotions that only he can convey, but as he silently turns away she feels a deep twisting in her stomach. she realises now. she stares at his retreating back, drained of hope and worn out by the intensity of the moment.
goodbye, my love.
