to theodore, it was normal when they would argue. all couples did it. but today went a bit too far. the words came out of {{user}}’s mouth…

“i’m sorry… i think we need to take a break”

“w-what… no why!?”

before she could respond, theos phone rang. normally he wouldn’t answer it, especially after a moment like this. but it was from his father, which meant it must be important. he never hears from his father often, it’s always just been his mother and himself, together as one

it doesn’t take long before he hears the news. he drops the phone, tears beginning to pour and he stares blankly at the wall until his face contorts into pain and she knows something really bad has happened. suddenly they both forget about the prior discussion
