March 5th, London, United Kingdom

She didn't open her hotel room, so I went to the reception and when they told me she had already checked out half an hour ago, I felt my heart sink to the bottom of my feet.

It wasn't wrong of her to leave, I would've done the absolute same thing if I had been here. But, as selfish as I could be, I still called her to have her turned around from wherever she was going.

And she refused– again, she had all the right to refuse. The fights we've had were breaking me apart too, breaking me so much that during the testing weekend, I couldn't even reach the top 10, but by some miracle, I became fifth during the race this weekend. 

Maybe some time apart wasn't so bad, but I couldn't stop myself from thinking I made a mistake. We made a mistake.

I didn't fight harder to stay. I just... left.

My driver finally stops in front of the apartment complex, and I get out as fast as I can. I need to know if Maya really left, because I didn't meant it when I said she could just gather her stuff and leave.

But the apartment is empty of her stuff. Her clothes are gone, her laptop, noteblocks, pencils, even maps with drafts of stories are all gone.

"Fuck!" I curse to myself, all emotions are running through my veins. My hands start trembling, and I quickly intertwine my fingers to make it less severe.

Where did she go?

I never meant for her to really just go.

Maybe I should just text her, but when I grab my phone, another message pops my eye.

Esteban

What's happening, mate?

A link to a paparazzi site follows and I immediately open it. It's worse than I expected.

F1 Lance Stroll's girlfriend seen crying at Bahrein Airport.

Girlfriend of F1 racing driver Lance Stroll, Maya Beaulieu. has been spotted at Bahrein International Airport crying and without her boyfriend by her side. Trouble in paradise for the Canadian power couple?

The picture was a blurry one, but you could definitely recognise Maya, she had tear streaks over her cheeks, and it broke my heart even more.

Esteban

Did you break up or something?

Why is she crying and why weren't
you with her?

I think we did..

We had another fight and she wanted
me to leave, so I left. I regret  leaving,
I shouldn't have left.

I don't know what to do, Esteban... I love
her so much and I don't want to publicly
announce a break up.

I'm sorry you're going through this mate

Have you tried calling? Maybe you can
talk it out
