***

Dry tears leaving streaks in my makeup.

My hands shaking.

I slowly opened the front door. I couldn't wait to see my boyfriend.

He was almost too good to be true.

After the attack, I was never the same. I took sabbatical leave from work because i was too distraught for such an intense workplace.

My eyes darted around the room.

Odd - he isnt here. Jacob is a chef, whenever i return home he is always trying to come up with a new recipe.

I creep around the kitchen.

My eyes flick over to a folded white note on the counter top.

I cautiously pick up the note.

My heart broke then and there. 

He ran away. 

Because he cant handle me.  

Boiling rage filled me. 

Everything goes red. 

I scream as I destroy the kitchen  windows with his favorite pan. 

I throw out all our photos and all of his cooking supplys earning a yell from the people on the floor below me. 

How could he leave me?
