It had just happened, I did it. I felt free, but captured, happy, but sad, hopeful, yet crushed. I had done it, like me and Louise practiced, like it was nothing. I stood up from the table and glared at him. Goodbye. I walked away, tears stinging wanting to come out of my eyes. I focused on the door. Don't turn around, don't go back. My mind controlled my feet, making my pace quicken towards the door, I pushed it open, just as tear hit my cheek. I pushed forward, continuing out the door. I looked frantically around, my tears coming out faster and steadily now. Pull yourself together! You broke up with him! My heart was yelling telling me “Just one more chance, after all he was your first ever long term boyfriend, and who you first said I love you to.” My mind told me “You gave him enough chances, no more, he broke your heart, and he doesn’t deserve to do it again. He doesn’t care that you said I love you to him before any other boyfriend you had previous.” I found my car, tears piled up on my cheeks, I fumbled with my bag searching for my keys. Once I found them, I swiftly unlocked the car and slammed myself down on the driver’s seat. I then slammed the door and locked it. Buckled up and fumble once again with the keys as I attempted to put them in the ignition. I got the key in and started up the car, I just realized with tears on my cheeks and a lump in my throat, I had nowhere to go. My house was not an option, Joe and my dad were away at my granddad’s house. I rang Chummy.

Ring…Ring….Ring…….My mind raced not knowing what I would say if she answered, but at the same time where would I go if she didn’t?.....Ring….

“Hello?” Her voice asked chirpily.

“Um…a……” My throat was going to cry, yes my throat. “I don’t know what to do!?” I yelled as the sounds of my crying erupted from me. I then realized HE was coming outside walking towards the car.

“Chummy what is wrong what happened?” I made the decision to leave the parking lot, I back out and just drove north to my Chummy’s house.

“I did it…”

“Oh, wow, um…. well, where are you now?” She knew what I meant.

I wiped tears away from my face to get some vision back. “On…. my way to….I don’t know….can…can I….”

“Chummy come over to mine for a while yeah?”

This is why I loved her, she already knew what I had wanted to do.

Two hours later, dried tears on my face, but I had arrived. I stepped out of my car into the summer sunlight. It was a Wednesday afternoon, it was sunny and warm, and it was mocking me with the sense of joy.

“Chummy….Come here!” Louise ran out her door and embraced me in a hug, she hated close contact, but made an exception for me.

“Hi…um…” I said with a stutter.

“Come in and we’ll have a talk. Darcy is upstairs sound asleep.” Louise stated knowing my concern.

Three hours, 3 boxes of tissues, many tears, and many hugs later, I was…better. I got many calls and messages from HIM and deleted every one of them and his number. Louise stepped out to call Matt what had happened. I heard her dial on the phone. I started to feel my eyes shut, and just like that I fell asleep.

Louise POV

I dialed Alfie’s number, I checked the clock half past 12 in the afternoon, he should be up. The phone rang 3 times before an answer….

“Hello?” Said a tried voice on the other line.

“Alfie, its Louise!” I said louder than intended, I peeked in the living room to make sure Zoe hadn’t heard, she was fast asleep.
