She: I love you!

He: I love you too.

She: I’ll never leave you.

He: I’ll always be there for you.

She: I’ll never stop loving you.

Years go by…           

He: Honey?

She: Yes?

He: I’ve met someone else…

She: But… You said…

He: I´m leaving you…

She: No! Wait!

He: Bye

She: But I love you and you said that you would always love me too!

He: It´s over, just get over it.

He walks out from the house that they have been sharing for four years. She sinks down on the floor. Staring at the door. Hoping he will change his mind and come back. But he does not. She sits there for three days just waiting and crying. She does not eat and she does not drink. She cannot even get up on her feet.

When he comes back to pick up his belongings he finds her sitting where he left her. She does not even look at him. She does not know that he is there. He lifts her up and carries her to his car. He starts the car and drives away. That is when she sees him. And a smile spreads on her face. He drives for an hour without even looking at her, and then he stops the car, gets out and lifts her up. He walks slowly and she lays her arms around his neck. And she rests her head against his chest. He does not walk far. He takes her into a big house. She is not aware of where he is going, and she does not care. As long as she is with him. She hears him talking to someone. And then he is handing her over to somebody else. She does not understand what is happening. She keeps holding her arms around his neck and refuses to let go. She feels someone dragging her away from him. She screams in pain. Because she knows that somebody just has dragged her heart apart again. And this time it will not heal. She screams and tries to hit and kick the people around her. She can hear people talking loudly and then everything becomes black.

She wakes up in a bed in a white room. She tries to lift her arms, but she cannot. They are stuck. A woman stands on the left side of the bed.

Woman: Hello, I´m May and I´ve been looking after you while you were asleep. Do you know where you are?

She shakes her head. She has no idée.

Woman: You´re with us on St. Michael’s mental hospital.

She looks at the woman. She cannot believe what she just heard. She closes her eyes and prays to god that he will let her die. Asks him to bring her home. But he does not listen and a tear falls from her eye.

As time passes by she gets better. Her favorite place is a big chair by the window. She always looks for him. Maybe he will come back some day, but he does not. And one day she is ready to go home. She has got a small house in the city. She goes out and meets new friends and she is happy. She starts seeing a new man and she really likes him. And one day he calls her and invites her to a special dinner in a very fancy restaurant. During the dinner they talk and laugh. When it is almost over he looks her deep in her eyes and takes her hands.  He opens him mouth and say: I love you.                                                                                                                It brings her back in time. To another restaurant, with another man. A man who she had loved more than she had ever loved someone else. And that she still loves. It gets too much and she drags her hands out of his and runs out from the restaurant. Her telephone starts to ring, but she does not care, she just runs. She runs to a place where she feels safe, where no one can hurt her. He storms in thru the big doors to St. Michel´s mental hospital. She stops in the middle of the hall, knowing that everybody is staring at her. And then she says:

-May, I need May.

And then she collapses. She steps up from the floor and looks down on her body. She looks up on the people around it. And she smiles, because she knows that her prayers finally have come true. God has sent an angel to bring her home.
