"Let me through Barry!" She yells at me as she comes up to the door "not until you stop and listen." She gave me a look I had never seen before, a look of hatred, disgust, I truly had lost her. She threw her bag and I quickly covered my body and she ran past me and grabbed her bag on the way past. She quickly got in her car and left and I was left at my house all by myself. She honked her horn and I looked out the window and she lifted her middle finger at me "I hate you Barry and I hope I never see you again!" And she drove off. I quickly started crying as I picked up the messed up sheets and blankets and pillows that Nova messed while she was putting up her clothes and packing. I saw the ring on the floor and started crying even more. I picked up the ring and sat on my bed and just stared at it. Staring at my failure. I thought to myself "you have to fix this Barry" so I quickly got in my car and headed to Stephanie's (I knew that was were Nova was going). When I got there Nova's car was in the driveway. I walked up to the door and knocked. Stephanie answered the door and instantly slapped me as hard as she could "what the hell is wrong with you?! To hurt Nova like that and then show up here!" Her hit left a giant red mark on my face but I just ignored it because it's what I deserved "I'm here because I want to try and fix things with Nova. Is she here?" She looked so disgusted at me, I'm surprised she didn't hit me again. "Yea, she is but why should I let you talk to her?" I just looked down at the ground because I  knew I didn't deserve to talk to her "I know I don't deserve to talk to her but Stephanie I love Nova. It may not seem like it but I do." She gave me a semi sympathetic look. "She's in the last room on the left." I gave a sympathetic look "thank you Stephanie." I quickly ran to the room Nova was in but before I opened the door  I heard Nova crying from inside. I knocked on the door and her Nova sniffle from inside "who is it?" I slowly cracked open the door "Hey" I said sadly. Nova quickly covered herself up under the blanket to hide all the tissues and the watered eyes from she had been crying. I sat down beside her on the bed "Nova, I'm sorry. I'm sorry I did that to you. I was stupid, the stupidest and know I've lost you. The worst punishment I could ever think of is losing you and know I have, and you hate me. And that just makes things worse. And you're not fat or ugly, you are the most beautiful girl I know." She peeked her eyes out from under the blanket and then Slowly uncovered her face she reached her hand out and slapped me on the cheek opposite of where Stephanie slapped me, leaving another red mark "I deserved that." She uncovers her whole head and body. "Why would you do that to me Barry? Why would you hurt me so much? Even knowing that we have a kid on the way." I knew how much I had hurt her, from all the tears and tissues, and the pain in her voice "I don't know Nova, I was being stupid and I'm so sorry I did that to you." I began to cry, and cry, and cry and cry and cry. I finally figured out all the pain; I imagined how I would feel if she did that to me and I began to wonder why she was even talking to me. She began to get more mad than sad "I'm sorry isn't going to cut it neither is an I don't know. Was I not good enough? Are you not happy? Do you not care about me?" I began to hate myself more and more "I am happy, you make me the happiest I've ever been. You are good enough and I do care about you and our child. I love you Nov and I always will; even if you hate me. I'm really sorry that I did that to you, she wasn't worth it. You are way better than she is and way better than anyone else. I just want to start over, I'm sorry."
