She was nervous to open the door, at first she thought of knocking it but then she thought it would show some mere decency which she didn't want to.
She widely opened the door and went in ignoring Edward whom she could very well see was sitting on the couch.
She was pretending not to talk to to him and in a very ignorant manner kept her keys and purse and was about to get in the washroom, when suddenly Edward came and held her hands. She somehow controlled herself and repeatedly uttered in her mind, not to cry.
When she looked around, she felt again  weak again and felt like hugging him tight, crying and apologising, telling him everything but she didnt. She reminded herself that she has to be strong.
In a very careless manner she asked

"what!? "

"what! you are asking me that question, something is wrong with you"
He said in a serious manner.

"nothing I am fine"
She said

"you didn't greet me or even looked at me once"
He said

She released her hand from his grip and said
"Edward I am tired"
She said and was about to go when Edward grabbed her hand, and this time it was a bit hard.

"ahh... Edward you are hurting me"
She screamed.

Edward was scared as he didn't want to hurt her willingly so he got worried and started apologizing holding her hand.
"oh... I am sorry... I am really sorry... Are you hurt baby.... Where is it just show me"
He held her hand up

Don't be weak!.. don't be weak
She repeatedly thought and quickly released her hand again

"no I am ok... Now can I go please, I am really tired and I need to fresh up"
She said in a disgusting tone and turned around to move away when Edward finally spoke.

"who was guy with you?"
He asked

She took a breath, finally her aim was correct, he has started doubting her.

"what guy, where? "
She said it in a unknowing manner.

"at the bar, Jagger"
He said.

"god you went there? "
She said a lie, because she very well wanted him  to be there.

"why you didn't want me to? I thought you did, because you informed Steve about it right."
He asked

"god!  I just informed him I didn't ask him to send you behind me"
She said it in a very ignorant manner.

Edward was bewildered by her answer.

"well I am sorry to disturb but who was that guy? "
He asked again.

Still looking away she closed her eyes, and fisted her hands. After gaining much courage inside she finally spoke up those harsh words

"what you gonna do knowing that Edward"

This time Edward was shocked.

"well... I.. I guess... I have.. Have... R... Right to know... Who was the guy... My girlfriend being so close to"
He stammered

" are you doubting me Edward? "
She yelled and turned around.

"N.. No I am just asking."
He said

" He was just a fan of my"
She again turned away.

" why aren't you talking eye to eye? "
He asked.

"that's so lame and stupid Edward"
She said.

"ya it may sound, but I am sorry to say you were sitting too close and intimate to that guy"
He said.

"OK you better think whatever you want"
She said.

"well you didn't tell me where were you for the whole day, a check up doesn't take so long"
He said.

She turned back again.
"well I didn't know that we had a deal that we are suppose to discuss our schedules with each other"
She said with sarcasm in her voice.

Now Edward lost all his patience.
" what the hell is wrong with you, why are you being so indifferent"
He yelled

"I am all right Edward"
She answered

"no you are not, look at you, you behaving so different, you look so different"
He said

"its just your wrong view point"
She said.

"no its not, you see I just asked you where you have been all day, you are not answering me"
He yelled

"Cummon Edward I am not bound to answer every question of yours, I am not answering because I don't want to"
She said

"but why? what happened?"
He asked

"god Edward don't treat me like a bird of the golden cage, I wont, because I don't wish to answer"
She said

After this reply he wasn't able to speak anymore.
"fine"
He said and walked away towards the door.

While opening it he said those last words.
"you have changed... You not even the girl I kissed last night, and you didn't even call me Ed"
He went away.

She didn't turn back.
After a minute she heard the starting of a car engine. She ran to the window and saw Edward driving away.

All these while she pressed her tears from falling, now they released like a flood.
Now she had nothing left, Edward almost hated her.
She went near the desk and took out a white sheet from the notepad to write a final goodbye note, probably the first ever good bye note written with thousand of lies.

After writing it she kept a paper weight on it and and opened the drawer. Though she didn't have the right to take anything she promised herself to carry just one thing with her, the sweet little gift that was given by her Ed when they made love for the first time, the pocket watch. She took it out and kept it inside her bag and rushed out.

Once she was out of the main gate she looked at the house for the last time and uttered
"I am sorry Edward "
Then she looked away promising not to look back again.

"taxi"
She called for a cab.
A cab stood in front of her and she got in.

"where do you wanna go miss? "
The driver asked.

And lastly she uttered the word

"Airport"
