Cheater

Part 1

She clung to him as if it were the only thing that remained. She felt lonely and depressed despite his presence in the room.

Today was not like yesterday; It was not like the last few years with him.

She had lost the feelings, the love for him that was contained in the heart jealously.

It all started as a joke: Mathias smiled at a girl named Isabelle and gradually began to hug her, hold her, cuddle and finally kiss her. Under the eyes of his girlfriend.

Rhea was devastated; She remained emotionless; pale and thin from not eating for a month. Only water and occasionally some candy for not having low blood sugar.

Tonight she was lying with Mathias embracing him. He was asleep, but she could not sleep at all.

Slowly she pulled away from the hug and sat down on the bed, covering her face which was in tears. She couldn't do it anymore. It was pure suffering.

Many were those long nights of screaming and plates or glasses that were being smashed against the walls in a hope of understanding on the part of Mathias, but nothing.

He kept saying that he did not like Isabelle and that he would never have done.

But day after day, week after week he didn't refuse more. He was falling for Isabelle.

The girl from the face streaked with tears, got out of bed quietly and began to make a case with the help of her phone's flash.

After that she was over she went to the balcony from the kitchen and called her best friend: Christian.

Christian is her good old friend; he would never have betrayed her after years of relationship; he would never say that she is a stupid paranoid.

"Hello?" The warm and vibrant voice of Christian was heard on the phone and Rhea immediate swallowed preparing herself to speak. "Tell me what's wrong? What it is?"

"Can you pick me up? I'm ... I'm running away from home and-" She could not finish the sentence because of the heavy sobs that were blocking her breathing.

Christian from other side was truly sorry for his friend; his heart was stinging from hearing her cry.

"Little star don't worry, I'm coming." He said before closing the phone call.

The girl immediately covered her mouth with her hand, shutting up. She took a deep breath to calm down and stop the tears.

Slowly she went into the room and saw Mathias still in the same position as before sleeping peacefully.

She would miss the kisses, hugs, jokes, love, sex, fight, which were with him.

She took the suitcase and carried it to the front door before going back to Mathias, sighing while leaning to kiss his forehead gently.

"I love you so..." she whispered faintly and then pulled back seeing that Christian had already arrived.

She went straight to the door and went out with the suitcase in silence without even looking back at the cheater.
