The shortest chapter I've ever written

One Lost, One Gained
"I'm getting married!!!" he said.
There was so much happiness in his voice as he said it. How could I destroy this moment for him? I should just act like the best friend he thought I was.
"That's great Shuuhei. You guys finally decided to tie the knot eh?" I said with the happiest smile I could muster, as I tried to hide the sadness in my voice and the tears that were threatening to fall.
I can never have him.
…………..
…………………………………
I decided to drown myself in sake. I didn't care how bad I would feel in the morning. I just needed to forget everything that happened today. Everything he told me.
I regret staying as his best friend and never saying that I loved him.
I would drink myself to death if I could, but, he asked me to be his best man.
He was killing me, but he had no idea what he was doing to me.
I left the bar, deciding to head for home. I walked with my head down, just staring at the road. I just wanted to disappear or die. Death would be a better option though.
As I walked, I heard people call my name and ask me if I was ok. I ignored them. Nothing, no one can do anything about my condition even if they knew the problem. So there's no point in telling them.
As I walked further, I noticed that no one was around. Finally, I'm alone. Finally, I could let go of the tears pent up inside.
I let my tears fall. Silent sobs escaped my lips. I decided that after tonight, I will never cry for him again. 'Cause this was so unlike me. I would never show anyone how miserable I am right now. That's what I thought, till I bumped into him…
"Abarai? What are you doing here?" he asked in that smooth voice of his.
No. It couldn't be. The last person I would want to see me like this.
I looked up. And there he was.
As he saw my crying face, his expression changed from the normally stoic one to the closest thing to a concerned look I ever saw in him.
"Abarai, what's the problem?" he asked, as he took my shoulders and raised my face to look at his.
I looked at his eyes, the warmest I've ever seen him show. I guess it's alright to tell someone. Even if that someone is my captain.
...
"He's gone." I said softly then melted into him arms.
