I walked into my apartment.

My life was gone.... Nothing left.

I went to my desk drawer and searched until I found what I was searching for.

A camping knife.

I remember me and Amy using it on our one and only camping trip.

I opened my work shirt one button at a time, doing the "she loves me, she loves me not", and it ended on "she loves me".

I put the knife over my heart and in one swift movement, pushed it in.

I felt nothing, as the state of my heart had not changed.

As the knife had pierced my skin, in the same moment, the phone rang. By the time I had removed the knife, the ringing was over.

"Hey, Sandon, It's Amy. The doctor told me what happened and what you did for me. Sandon, I love you. Me braking up with you was just a prank... Anyway, drop in when you can. Bye"

Well. A prank 'ey. You should have thought about that before you ruined.... My Life.

And my love for you... That was hidden by the silence of a decade....
