The shower felt nice after a long day. I couldn't have been more happier than the feeling of hot water rain over my body.
I didn't even know what time it was nor did I even care I was getting ready to start college. I was 18 and on my own for the first time.
I just broken up with my boyfriend Shane after I found message on his phone from a girl named Brenda . He had been seeing her for a few months and I guess he thought I'd never find out. I wasn't gonna play his stupid games. I didn't need a guy to cheat on me.
We've been together almost a year and then I find out he's cheating. He still wanted to work it out with me, but I was done. I couldn't trust him again. It hurt because I really loved him.
But I guess the same is true. Some things don't last forever. I had met Shane at the fair last year and I thought he was the most handsome man I've ever saw. We hit it off right away and soon we were dating. I thought he was my soulmate, but I was so wrong .
I never trust anyone again once your heart gets broken. It's hard to even think about trusting again I still couldn't believe he had cheated on me as good as I was to him. I even cried for three days straight. It hurt that bad, but I wasn't going to let it break me down. I would stay strong and move on . I got me a job at the burger barn as a waitress.
I got good tips and it paid for my own one  bedroom apartment I just rented it was mine to call Home college was going to be a big thing for me. I wanted to become a veterinarian since I love animals so much.
I had a cat named Ringo and I wanted to get another one, but I was going to wait a while until I got things together. My phone rang at the moment, I looked down to see if I knew the number
It was my sister Melissa
Hello, I said
Hey Jess, how are you doing?
I'm OK sis I told her
I can't believe how done you
I know me either I said
You're too good for him she said
I'll be OK I told her
Guys are just jerks she said
I laughed. Melissa was two years older than me. She had been with the same guy for two years and they felt like cats and dogs. I don't even know how they stayed together. I bet you will find a gorgeous guy when you get to college she said.
I'm not looking for another guy I told her
Doesn't mean you won't find one she said
Melissa, I really don't want another guy. It's too hard.
Maybe you'll meet the right one time she said
Is there such thing as the right one I thought didn't matter to me I was done. I didn't want another guy. Shane had done broken me. I started college Monday. Maybe that would help me get my mind off things for a while. Maybe we should go to a movie or something Melissa said .
Yeah, we can do that
How about tomorrow night?
That should be fine. I told her.
I love you, sis
I love you too I told her
After I hung up the phone, I said back in the chair with my robe wrapped around me. I think bedtime was gonna be early tonight.

When I woke up the next morning, I had two missed calls on my phone both of them from Shane. I listen to the
Just please talk to me. I need to hear your voice.
Yeah, sure he did. I listen
I love you. You're the only one I want. Please talk to me.
I deleted both messages. I didn't want to hear his excuses. He made his choice to live with it. I wasn't gonna be that stupid again. I went to the fridge and poured me some orange juice. I was gonna go out with Melissa tonight then get ready for my big day to Monday I couldn't wait to get started. I would show Shane. I didn't need him or anyone else for that matter. My love life at least it was for a long time. I didn't even want to think about another guy or look at another guy when your heart was broke it's broke and there's nothing you can do to fix it. I thought was my everything until the messages on the phone, him and Brenda texting back-and-forth.
Her telling him she loved him him telling her he loved her too, and then I found pictures that she had sent him and it made me sick and then he sent her pictures and it made me sick and he expected me to forgive him. How can you forgive someone who does stuff like that who shows their self to another person when you're supposed to love someone you don't cheat on them I didn't wanna talk to him anymore. I didn't look at him think about him or anything I was done. I was over him even though it's still hurt I was not gonna let, him get to me
Brenda could have him now I was done. I had to focus on my career now and that's all that mattered to me to get my career to be a veterinarian and help animals. Do you say one animal would mean the world to me as much as I loved animals and to go to college and become a veterinarian was my dream and I was going to make that happen no matter what.
Screw you shane i thought
Im so done with you
Jerk
