I know everything you don't want me to
The relationship had moved so far beyond the bounds of a compromise - only none of them had the guts to admit to it though a corner of their hearts knew that the feeling is mutual.
Dejected and feeling betrayed he poured his heart out to a stranger and admitted what he had yet to articulate ever to anyone - I love her...and a corner of my heart hoped/thought she feels the same way for me.
What she is unaware of is; he knows all that she is doing...only he is unaware of the reason and the whole truth and hence has filled the gaps with his own experience, an experience learned at the hands of an ugly, brutal dark past. Bruised and battered his heart revolts and decides to hurt her before she could hurt him, he decides to not let anyone break his heart even as he says - how could I have not heard the sound of my heart breaking?
He is filling the gap with his half truth, so human yet so tragic! And the line about smile on her heart/soul 😳, this line made me wanna go hug everyone I love.
