Officially the worst month ever.
You'll always remember where you were when Zayn left One Direction. The moment when somebody had to wave smelling salts under your nose because you'd passed out from the shock. And then, when you eventually regained consciousness, the realisation set in that he was really no longer a part of One Direction.

Stage Three: Twitter
