All of it is gone now. We went our separate ways about a year after we had sex when I was 16.

Ben went to college to become a doctor, and I went to a completely different college to become a lawyer.

Now I'm a single 24 year old woman. I don't know what I was thinking? I hoped that Ben would come back to me. I missed him so much, but he probably has had loads of girlfriends by now.

Come to think of it, he probably doesn't even remember me. He probably has every picture of us together shoved to the bottom of some box in the attic of wherever he lives now. He probably skips my contact on his phone when he's looking for his girlfriend to text. He might even be married by now.

Ugh this is so frustrating.

I was snapped out of my thoughts from my phone vibrating on the table next to me. I picked it up without bothering to look at the caller ID.

"Hello?" I said lazily into the speaker.

"Hi, Anika, why aren't you at work?" I immediately knew it was one of my best friends, and co worker, Ryan.

"Because I don't feel well." I could hear him laugh into the phone.

"Ok, well you get better, okay?" I nodded, then remembered that he couldn't see me.

"Sure," I mumbled, pressing end before the conversation could go any further.

I slowly sat up and walked over to the bathroom. I turned on the faucet and threw some cold water on my face to wake me up.

I walked downstairs, still in my pajamas, and pulled out all of the things to make pancakes.

After the pancakes were done, I sat at the table and ate them. I was such a drab 24 year old. Eating pancakes while I should've been at work.

As I stood up, I heard a knock on the front door, I walked over and looked through the peephole. My eyes widened.
