Yeah, that is a brutal line, especially to be said so carelessly. Definitely felt for your protagonist here. The run-on sentence in the first paragraph made for a rough start, as well as some sentence structure stuff in the middle. Still, on the whole, nicely written moment of relationship pain.
ouch! i like the first paragraph, minus the grammar errors, it sets the tone for the whole piece. Nice set up to the line at the end. My only critique, focusing on the lips, which is great, made me think he’d kissed her.. even though you said ‘those awful words he spoke’. maybe if you changed it to ‘those awful words his lips had uttered.’
ouch. I had to read the sentence starting with “The said heart…” twice because of the line break and you already indicated it was ripped out of her chest and now it’s stuck in her throat.
Well I saw it as it had been ripped out of her chest, but not necessarily her body. Good point about names, however in this story I liked the fact that they were ambiguous as I think the situation can relate to a lot of people. Thanks!
