One Month

Tears Shed | 6

I woke up abruptly by Mark snoring loudly. I opened up my eyes to find him an inch away from my face. I gave him a morning kiss and I saw his deep blue eyes open up and he smiled.

He kissed me again. "Good morning beautiful." He said smiling. "Sure, I look beautiful!" I chuckled. "You do, no lie. Well excluding your mascara raccoon eyes and your hair." He laughed. "Just kidding." He said still laughing. "Oh shut up!" I laughed.

I got out of bed and realized I was still in my clothing. Wrinkled clothes and all. Crud. "Uh, I'm going to go get ready." I said. "Kaye babe." He said while texting on his phone, typical Mark.

I walked to the other end of my hall and was greeted by Nala my fluffy 8 month old kitten playing with her feather ball. "Hey baby, hey sweetness, hey my little baby boo!" I said in my high 'cat voice'. I got down on my knees and turned her over. I then kissed her on her stomach.

"Bye Nala baby." I said while giver her a kiss on her head and walked to my closet.

I walked in and shut the door behind me. I walked to my shorts section and pulled out some denim light blue short shorts. I then walked over to my t-shirt section and pulled out a peach colored tee with a polka dot colored pocket on the front. I then pulled off my old clothes and pulled my shirt on with the shorts. I then walked down the hall to my bathroom.

I was greeted with the same golden blonde waist length wavy hair and sky blue eyes that I saw every morning in the mirror. I sighed heavily thinking I only had about 30 days to see this in the mirror. I quickly brushed my teeth.

I opened up the chestnut cabinet and took my makeup bag out. I zipped it open and took my BB cream out, I applied it onto my face, a natural light tone. Then I took my Bare Minerals Lush Lashes mascara out and applied it onto my lashes. After that I took my liquid liner and lined my eyes winging it out at the end. And finally I finished it off with pink Baby Lips and a Stila Lip Glaze.

My look was complete, I smiled in the mirror and realized that I forgot my hair.

I quickly grabbed my brush and stroked my long locks out and tied them into a fish tail braid on the side of my head.

I dashed down the hall, back to my closet, and went to the jewelry section and grabbed my anniversary ring that Mark gave me for our 'happy 2 years of dating' anniversary. It was a golden ring with a sapphire in the middle. I smiled to myself.

I walked back down the hall admiring my ring and bumped into someone causing me to fall onto my butt. "Ouch, jeez you should watch where your going Mark-." It wasn't Mark it was one of our housekeepers, this one in particular was a male and twenty two. "O-Oh ma'am I'm so s-sorry, I didn't look where I-I was going!" He stuttered. "Oh it's fine, I thought you were my boyfriend," all the sudden at the word, boyfriend, Mark ran out of my room and looked confused. "Oh Mark, this is Antonio our housekeeper, well one of our housekeepers actually." I chuckled. "Antonio sounds like a pretty stupid name don't you think Scar?" He said while glaring at Antonio. "Mark! Where are your manners? You don't have to be jealous, me and Antonio were never together and never will be now let's get some breakfast." I said while getting up and waving bye at Antonio.

"Oh my gosh Mark, you make good pancakes!" I said while taking another forkful of pancakes and shoving them into my mouth. He was just staring off into space. "Mark? Mark!" I yelled at him. "Oh sorry, I was just thinking..." He stated. "Well go on..." I said slowly.

"Well, do you really trust those doctors? How do you know their not playing a trick on you? How do you know that you might actually not die in one month? I don't know but I don't trust them." He said. "Mark, oh my goodness, they went to college for eight years, we can trust them!" I said.

"Scar, don't be stupid, trust me." He said getting out of his seat beside me and standing in front of me. "I'm not stupid and even though I trust you I trust the doctors more with my health." I said. "So you don't trust me? You know I would think that you would trust me since we've been dating since sophomore year." He said raising his voice. "Mark I DO trust you, just not with my health, I mean I do trust you with my health but not with stuff like life changing like cancer or something." I said.

"I knew it you little b**ch."" He said angrily and slapped me right across the face. "W-Wha-What was that for?!" I said while my tears threatened to burst. "Scar, I didn't mean to, I wa-." Was all I heard before rushing thorough the front door and pulling off my anniversary ring and throwing it on the cement. I started running as tears streamed down my face as far away I could get from him.

I ran until I saw a park and decided to stop there. I walked over to a bench and slumped down onto it. My head was in the my hands and I was bawling. I just couldn't stop.

"Scarlet? Is that you, are you okay?" A familiar voice asked. I looked up and was greeted by Devon, my old ice skating partner. "Devon!?" I asked happily. "Yep! But what happened to you? You look terrible!" He said. "My boyfriend... got angry and... slapped me." I said between sniffles. "Oh come here." He said while lightly pushing my head to lay upon his chest. I didn't argue. Devon just patted my head and brushed my hair with his fingers. While I lightly sniffled on his chest.

"Scar?" I heard a voice too familiar ask. It was Mark.
