The next couple of weeks had been the same. I had no job, not much of a house. The only thing I enjoyed from this torture was the sweet silent I never got. As I do miss.. her, I would rather stay in my utter silence longer.
It keeps me sane and pristine. Though, to my dismay, pristine isn't much of a word I'd use in this context. I've yet to shower in 4 weeks. The water in my sower head is leaky and dirty, mind that I don't have money to fix it.
I don't have many friends either. Well, except for Cody my bestfriend since my early twenties. He had stood by me when my marriage when to shit. He's fun, yet also strict. He had a kind of rule, he's somewhat picky about who he picks.
I don't know why he would pick me, but each tho their own I guess. I mean, he's bright, loving, but also cold and stern.
I woke up with a jolt. The same nightmare again. The sight ofher leaving me.. to die. It was unbearable. I've loved that women with just as much love as I could give. She was my everything.
I look around my room. Sweat hanging off my fave. The fear had risen again, leaving me to my thought to haunt me. It's like I'm being punished for my actions. Yet all I did was love her. She was everything. She was not nothing. She wasn't not enough, she was everything I stood for.
I could remember the scent she had on her. The smell of burnt cinnamon with honey. Her warm lips against mine.. but this is yet to be another silly old love story, no no child. This.. would be the tale of a heart wrenching, gutting, tragedy.
I sighed and stood up. My joints popping. 'How convenient for a 36 year old.' I chuckled at the thought. Then. There was a slight knock at the front door.
I yawned. Gathering clothes and heading to the bathroom. The knocks continue, louder each time I spoke in a soft yet booming voice while muttering to myself shortly after. "Hang on, hang on! I'll be right there.. God, can't even fucking have a time to myself anymore."
I open the bathroom doorm my clothes in a mess, the same as with my hair. I sighed, walking to the front door. 'Who the hell is knocking so damn loud.' I check the time real quick. 'It's barely 5!! Why the fuck is someone bothering me!.'
The knocks finally stopped as I inched my hand to the knob. I twist it, opening the door wide. There stood Cody. He spoke is his usual happy self "my God, Harvey! It's been so long! How's the house?"
I roll my eyes and smile, speaking in a soft tone. "Oh you know, messy. Hehe, what can j do for ya pal?"
Cody smiles, then replies. "Oh my golly, I'm so glad you asked! I thought, since you've been cooped up in this fifth fit WEEKS, I figured we go have some fun! It could be anywhere!".
I spoke. "The bar?" Cody frowned. "No, not the bar! We've already been there. Hmm.. oh oh! What if we go scavenge fo jobs! Or or we go get ice cream! Or-".
I cut him off. "Really? Jobs? I've already got fired, besides, I'm sure I can handle that. And ice cream? Come knez what are we? 15 year old boys dating? Come kn, we ain't got money for that shit." I sigh.
Cody then perks up. "Ok.. then what about the club! I'm sure there's a lot of hot women and sexy men out there for ya! Plus, it could help ya out of your scummy, gloknu, depressed vibe. Not a good look babes."
I groan. "That has a bar there, and you said no bars." Cody speaks again. "Yes.. but we're also on the hunt fit your future someone! Come on, no time to mope about donn-."
I cut him off again. "We are not speaking, nor saying her name." Cody sighed l. "Right right, but just saying. It could help take your mind off of her. Besides I'll pay for ya."
I looked at him. "Really? you'd do that? I swear on my dead dog, I'll pay ya back!"Cody laughed "Oh don't worry hun, I got this all figured out. And if I really want a thing in return, I'd ask-" He looked at my crotch, then back to me. "For something already~" he smirked.
I rolled my eyes. "No, keep that to yourself." Cody sighed. "Fine fine. you know darling it would bring out your fun side. Also, I already told Helen and the kids that I'd be with you. So.. pleaseeeee?"
He gave me the puppy eyes. I front and roll my eyes. "Fine! Just stop with thr fucking eyes, geez dude."
Cody clapped and chuckled. "Great! I'll be back around.. hmm, let's say 6? Put on your nicest clothing you own! And if you don't, I'll drop some off on our way. You can get changed in the car, sound good?"
I sighed then nodded. "Sounds good, but I just don't see the point in all of this. I mean, who's gonna want a fucking 30 year old? I'm old as shit!"
Cody lightly smacks my head. I wince. "Don't be a depressed Coe! Your mot getting younger, so that's why we need to find your forever somone! And if it all goes to shit, you can stay with me and Helen, can be a friend/uncle type thing".
I chuckle. "OK ok, see ya tonight then. 6?" Cody nodes "and don't be late either! I'll be back with clothes. See ya harv!!" He waves bye as I do the same, closing the door I'm the process.
I sighed as the thought. 'Am I really gonna go out to a club? Lately all I've been doing is moping, binge eating, and sleeping more then usual. God fucking dammit. Maybe.. maybe it's it is time to let go, i mean it's been months since the divorce.'
I waked over to my kicked, checking to see if I had any food left over. Eventually I found a couple of bread, some cheese and butter. 'Looks like it's a grilled cheese kinda day.'
I set the supplies down on th4 counter grabbing a pan and setting my stove to a low heat. I grab my Two slices of bread, and added the cheese (which meted fast as fuck ). As much as I dislike grilled cheeses.. I can't complain. They're good for poor chumps like me.
