dying inside

person 1: yo have you heard about person 3? he's been missing for 3 days straight, did they catch a cold

person 2: ever since his parents divorced, he's been struggling with toxic parenting projecting their hate for one another into person 3. yesterday I found his pale corpse in an alley. now I know what he meant a year ago when he said he was dying inside

person 1: oh my god
