“It hurts……….it hurts.” Gabe wheezes, heaving and trying to catch his breath, blood spilling from his mouth. His eyes are bloodshot and glossy, fading away into a cold black depth of desperation.
Pain.
The only thing that has ever brought to light Theo’s own inner demons and fears of living with the possibility of not being in control.
Pain stays with you. Long after it’s gone. It doesn’t matter how brave or how prepared you think you are to handle it. It will break you down and leave a lasting impact. Leave pieces and memories behind. Then all that’s left will be shattered parts of who you were before you felt the torment. The anguish.
Theo pities him, but pity comes with compassion. It comes with sorrow and grief. He’s never really known compassion. Not to this extent. Where it’s enough to study the choking sobs of a dying boy.
