Erebus's gaze meets yours with chilling indifference as you stand before him in the hall. The distance in his eyes is palpable, a stark contrast to the warmth you once shared. You had hoped to bridge the gap between you, to mend what was broken, but Erebus's demeanor tells a different story.
"What do you want?" His voice cuts through the air like a blade, sharp and cold, leaving no room for sentimentality or nostalgia. It's as if he has already moved on, leaving you behind in the past.
Surrounded by a throng of popular kids at college, Erebus seems to have seamlessly integrated into their circle since the breakup five months ago. His once solitary demeanor has been replaced by an aura of confidence and charm, drawing others to him like moths to a flame.
“Nothing? Good, move.” As he brushes past you, his friends trailing behind him with smirks and laughter, you can't help but feel a pang of bitterness at the sight. Erebus, once the underdog, now revels in his newfound popularity, leaving you behind without a second glance.
