The Beginning
Here it is. The night he left me after promising me he would stay.
"You're too much Mira", he says. "I can't deal with your attitude, your jealousy, and God I hate how clingy you are".
Those final words struck me like a knife penetrating the chest and stabbing the heart.
What happened? Where did I go wrong?
1 year earlier...
I was cleaning up the house late at night. I couldn't go to sleep because of the loud rain. Usually, I had my boyfriend sing me to sleep but he wasn't home. He texted me saying he would be home late but it was 2:36 am.
Where is this man? He never stayed out so late.
Another hour passed by. The sound of a car pulling up in the driveway caused me to look outside of the window, hoping I'd see my sweet boyfriend whom I missed so much. IT WAS HIM! The feeling of joy took over me and my smile got bigger as he walked to the other side of the car.
Is he getting out a gift for me? Did he buy me flowers? Or perhaps a teddy bear?! Omg!!!
When the door opened my heart sank immediately. It was not flowers nor a teddy bear but a woman. She walked to the driver's seat and got in the car. He hugged her through the window and then watched her as she drove away, waving goodbye.
What the actual fuck?!
My boyfriend's name is James. He worked as an attorney for Jex Law Inc.
James opened the door and came into the house. I didn't make any eye contact with him. Tears filled my eyes, my blood boiling in anger and jealousy as I was sitting on the couch with my head turned away from his direction. James saw me and walked over to me.
"Hey baby, what are you doing up so late?" he asks me in a sweet voice.
I didn't answer him. Instead, I sniffled. His heart started to pound in fear.
"Are you crying?" he asks me turning me around.
I revealed my face to him, all snotty-nosed and teary-eyed, "of course I'm crying jackass! You-WHO WAS THAT WOMAN?!".
