Chapter 69: An empty shell
Eloise's POV
"How long has she been like that?"
"Too long if you ask me. It's like she's gone. All she does is stare at that empty space like she doing right now"
"It's a shame but well, sometimes we save some and sometimes, they are just too broken"
The voices came from behind me and they talked for a while too. I tried to ignore them but one word stuck in my head and it played like it was on a loop.
Empty
Empty…
how a five letter word could have such devastating meaning was beyond me.
According to a dictionary, Empty means a lot of things.
It means containing nothing; not filled or occupied.
Empty can mean - vacant, unoccupied, uninhabited, untenanted, clear, deserted.
But to me, Empty is just empty. There was no explanation needed. No further definition but the word itself.
