ㅤㅤㅤㅤ ㅤㅤㅤㅤ ❛ aah, i — ❜ your chest is instantly emptied ( breathless : all the air was knocked out by the impact / the fear ), fluttering at the pace of a distressed bird’s wings. you hear a thud, distinct enough for your ringing ears to pick up despite the hum of bypassing cars. whether it was something that belonged to you or the stranger, you do not know : your thoughts were too quick to be devoured by nothing more than dismay, dismay, dismay.
❛ … i’m sorry — ! did i — break? something? ❜
