Girl, 20, lies down in bed and is sobbing quietly. It is 2 o'clock in the morning. There is a strong sense of pain and anger in the air. We see her room is a mess with books in disorganised piles on the table and in the bookshelf, clothes strewn about and draped over the furniture, shoes in one corner of the room by the cupboard look like they were thrown there and disregarded. Girl herself looks quite the mess. Her matted hair is in a loose ponytail, her clothes are crumpled and her eyes bloodshot. 

Girl:

I cried tonight, after we said goodnight. I felt incredibly lonely when you went to bed with goodnight wishes so cold and distant. I wanted to be held the way I held you. I wanted your warmth. I wanted to know that you wanted me too. I miss you incredibly with the kind of emptiness that hurts and makes my hands hyperaware of the absence of your fingers in the spaces between mine. Do you feel it too? I believe you would but it is likely overwhelmed by something else- hurt. Did I drive you away with words that stirred your insecurities knowing full well that it would but done in the name of love and respect? Perhaps. I love you, yes, but I cannot deny the experiences I want to have with my friends while I'm young and still able to experience life carelessly. Still, I gave it up. I didn't want to push you away but the words have been said and that brings me to my current state. I wept thinking of how much I wanted to be by your side. I wanted to hold you, to love you, to show you that I can be trusted. I don't know what you think of me anymore and that scares me. I want to lie down beside you and listen to your heart beating as you sleep and dreams fill your mind with all kinds of wonder. I am no longer the girl you know me to be, I believe it is so. Now, I'm no good. All I do is hurt and lie and cheat you but you give me so much. I often wonder myself, how am I able to do this to a man I truly love? Maybe there's something wrong with me and I'm broken. Maybe I was never meant for you. Maybe I was a mistake that was too late too fix, because you were falling too and now that you're in too deep, you too are afraid... I still love you. I still care. I just wish you saw it and acknowledged that I tried to.
