Author's POV:

Her lips were quivering but she couldn't say what she wanted as only tears kept rolling helplessly...

She staggered a few steps until her back leaned on the wall and crouched on the floor...she held her head between her knees in an attempt of hiding herself in the darkness before her eyes

Her trembling body and every hiccup felt like a wild thorn pricking his heart which was too difficult to discard

He stood rooted to the ground as his whole body was full of frightful coldness while she squeezed out those words from the depths of her heart and choked between her helpless tears

"You too don't want me...

You too want to get rid of me...

Hai na??"

It was a warm voice full of hurt and pain...

For a moment he was too depressed to react to anything...

He was guilty...
He was ashamed...

He never wanted her to survive this ugly feeling of being unloved and unwanted...

It wasn't  the words that tugged a pinch of discomfort to his heart but it was her immeasurable tears that shuddered his soul

Those beautiful pair of innocent eyes oozing tears of indescribable pain that were ravishingly rolling down her cheeks like a heavy rain made his heart feel all empty and lonely...

His heart felt and immense loss burst out with immeasurable pain...

His body lost its strength as his legs gave up and he slumped on the floor like a dead piece of meat...

His eyes which were cold and composed suddenly filled with tears...

He kept staring at her shivering retreating figure all motionless and quiet...

Only silent tears kept flooding out of his eyes...

His posture resembled that of a dead man whose soul had been flown away in an instant and he is left all

Lifeless...

Two dead souls were oozing out the pain that was piled up in them for years as yet another time they were tormented and assaulted by the scars of their hearts...

The scars of their hearts reminded them that they had survived the deepest of wounds...

The scars of their hearts reminded them that the damage life has inflicted on them has made them stronger and resilient...

But how long...

Someone said that yesterday's baggage becomes tomorrow's fear imprisoning our minds and hearts for today...

That's what happened with them...

The baggage of their past has left an invisible scar that had the courage to destroy themselves from within...

We can accept or reject the way we are treated by the people but unless and until we heal the wounds of our past we will continue to bleed...

We can temporarily stop the bleeding with work drugs alcohol sedatives or any other...it will all eventually subside too but it leaves an unfading scar deep inside your heart...

And everyone has a scar or a pricking thorn in their hearts that cannot be removed all over the life...

We survive with those scars...

That's how life is supposed to be...

Suraj and Avani...

Two broken souls as their name suggest one is burning himself to burn out the scars and the other one is hiding everything in herself to hide the scars...

So will they be able to survive...

The scars of hearts...

Dearest Readers❤

I so wanted to write something on emotional abuse as it's the worse trauma one could ever face and couldn't stop myself from penning down this simple story...

This one will be a short story but I'll try my level best to make it a good one for sure...
