Day two without you

8:00 am

I opened my eyes, and I felt strange. I rolled over my left side and saw that the space where Phil slept was empty. I ignored the weird feeling coming up my chest and got up.

10:00 am

After having a shower I managed to feel better and made my way to the kitchen. The house was too quiet without the soft sound of pancakes being cooked. Suddenly I felt a pit in my stomach and the small desire that I had for food disappeared.

12:00 am

I was sitting in a bench near China Town. I couldn't feel anything, not even when I saw a new Pokemon figurine that I didn't have. What was the point of buying it anyway? No one would be there to hear me rant about it. I was sitting with a Bubble Tea on my hand, I didn't know why I bought it, but I guess it's better to drink it.

14:00
Now I was standing in front of the cinema. There were a lot of movies that Phil would've wanted to watch, maybe I would tell him that later.

16:00
I sat in a table at Starbucks, my coffee felt warm in my hands, but I didn't felt like drinking it. Normally I would make fun of Phil for asking a Pumpkin Spice Late, like a basic white girl, but I couldn't resist getting one.

18:00
There was one place left to visit before I returned to our, now mine, empty apartment. I walked through the green field, looking at the random stranger's names written on the tombstones until my eyes encountered a familiar name.

"Hi Phil" I smiled weakly "day two without you has been hard"
I felt a knot forming in my throat and the tears were clouding my view. I sat down and started talking to him. I wished it was me instead of him, but I guess life's unfair.

"I should leave now, you know? It's getting quite late." I smiled "Although I won't be able to sleep. I miss you so much."
I stood up and looked at his name written there, almost as if I couldn't believe it.
"And I love you"
Then I left the cemetery, still feeling numb. I guess that feeling won't go away any time soon.
