Jay didn’t respond to my text, you guys.
I don’t think he ever will again, to be honest.
And yet a shiny, golden part of my heart always wants to try – wants to hold on and not let go.
But it hurts! It hurts me terribly when Jay ignores me. I checked my phone constantly after messaging Jay about Dad’s birthday and felt heartbroken whenever I looked because he’d not texted back.
I guess I knew all along he’s done with me but I had to try – for Dad, I had to try.
