"I feel like I'm just missing something whenever you leave. You got all the ingredients except you needing me."

He had started to go out. 

A lot. 

I remembered when he used to want to take me everywhere with him because I was his perfect little princess. 

It ended up where all I got was a "I'm going out" before he grabbed his wallet, keys, and other necessities and headed out the door. 

At first I would jump off the couch and ask him if I could go along but he'd just snap at me. 

I learned to ignore him and keep my eyes trained on the television in front of me when he gave that same monotone phrase. 

Once he began to go out almost every night, I slowly came to understand that... 

..he no longer needed me.
