The Necklace

I threw or giveaway most of the presents given by the ex because I could not bear seeing them after the break up. My heart ached every time I saw them and the old memories flashed back, often leaving me in tears. But, there's one thing I always kept with me- a necklace. I didn't have the heart to throw it or give it away but I did not wear it either. I left it in my jewellery box. I still missed him sometimes. That's probably the only thing which reminds me of him.

One day, I told myself, if I can wear that necklace and not tear, I've reached another mile stone in life. I've gotten over it. Maybe, we can even talk to each other as friends.

It's been more than two years already. I saw that necklace when I opened my jewellery box that day. Surprisingly, I did not have the feeling which I had previously. I was cool and calm. I looked at it like how I looked at my other jewelleries.

I guess I'm almost there.... Perhaps, someone is mending my broken heart.

All I need is just a bit more time.
