The wedding was called off-
much to the disappointment of him.
He kept begging-
Adamant for me to take him back.
How could I?
He had betrayed me
In the worst of ways.
Tonight was worse,
I tried not to show it
To my family.
Bella and Ivory came racing home-
Coaxing me to tell them
What had happened.
We had to share a room,
And they heard my sniffles.
The pity in their eyes-
Too much to bear.
