Reasons
"They say: You don't know what you've
got till it's gone.
But the truth is: You knew exactly what you
had; you just thought you'd never lose it."
"..I want to break up, Ichigo." The words came out. Two people stood in front of each other, not knowing what to do next as they stood out in the rain. It was 8:34 PM on a Saturday night. The rain just seemed to pour down harder.
"..What?" was all the boy could say as he stared down at the smaller girl's head which she kept bowed.
"Don't make me say it again.." The girl's head rose up a bit then turned slightly to the side. "Can you really say you weren't expecting this, Ichigo?" Her head was now looking upwards into the amber colored eyes in which she grew to love.
Silence. That's all there was at that point. All you could here was rain drops falling onto the concrete sidewalk.
"Ruki– " was all the substitute shinigami could say before he was cut short by the girl in front of him.
"Don't make this any harder than it has to be, Ichigo." Ichigo looked in her eyes to try to find a meaning to all of this, but couldn't. Ichigo opened his mouth about to say something but couldn't as he was lost for words. He couldn't describe this feeling he felt. His breathing became abnormal and his hands started shaking. He finally managed to sputter out the words.
"Rukia.. why?" A simple question with so many answers.
"'Why'?" The tiny girl started. "What do you mean 'why'? That's my question to you, Ichigo." She said with an angry tone. Rukia was now on the verge of tears as she looked at her old lover straight in the eyes. "Do you realize how many times I've been hurt because of you, Ichigo? Do you realize how many times I've cried myself to sleep at night because of you?" Rukia angrily said loudly. Tears were now streaming down her face but she still kept looking at Ichigo in the eye. Ichigo's eyes widened slightly as he watched the strong girl, whom he fell in love with, fall apart in front of his eyes. "Do you realize.. how much I love you?" Was the last question she asked as she brushed a wet strand of hair away from her face. Her eyes stared hard into Ichigo's, as if she was trying to tell him something. Something important.
"Tell me, Rukia. Tell me why you're doing this. Give me a reason.. please." Ichigo begged as he couldn't believe the words she was speaking to him. She looked back at Ichigo and took a deep breath.
"Then let me tell you, Ichigo. Let me tell you every reason I'm like this now. Let me tell you why I feel so broken inside. I'll tell you.. but will you listen to me? Until the very end?" Rukia was now speaking with a calm but serious voice.
"..I'll listen." Ichigo nodded. He was serious too. He wanted to know why she was doing this to him. To her. To both of them.
Rain fell down around them. They were both drenched but neither seemed to care.
"..." Rukia shifted her eyes to the floor and stared for a few seconds until finally looking up. "Then let's start with the first reason.. Ichigo."
Rain continued to pour as Rukia began to talk again.
"..It all started after we've been dating for 3 months."
