Through the Telephone.

Have you ever heard people with heartbreak in their voices?

The whole conversation, one-sided from where I sit, was an attempt to convey information, a genial conversation with a friend. He was trying to sound cool throughout, but at that moment when he spoke about betrayal, or something of that sort, there was an unmistakable pain in his voice. Heartbreak, I’d call it. That one moment, I felt his pain acutely, even though I usually am removed and very much unconnected to him.

Sometimes I think we have nothing in common, and pity him because of the vibe of disappointment and hatred surrounding him.
