A week or so later Lee was at work. "Excuse me...class" Lee runs out of the class room into the staff toilets and vomits. He begins to clean himself up and study's his image in the bathroom mirror. His eyes are heavy and he is pale. "I'm not well" Lee whispers to himself.
Another teacher walks in "Jesus Lee!" It was the school care taker Markus. He runs over and stand by Lee leaving his cleaning equipment by the door. "Are you okay man?" Markus asks.
"Yeah, I'll be fine....just erm stressed" Lee washes his face with water.
"You should go home and get some rest, you look awful...no offence"
"Non taken"
"Go sign yourself out after the lesson, its nearly over" Markus begins to pick up the cleaning equipment. "Now git" Markus says holding up a mop pretending to hit Lee out of the way. Lee laughs.
The lesson has finished and Lee begins to collect the history books off of the tables. He puts his favourite book he is reading about American civil war history in his case and signs out of the school. The journey home Lee feels faint and tired. He turns on the radio and hears his favourite song. After about 2 minutes in he stops it. "Not in the mood for that today" he sighs as he turns into his neighbourhood. It is quite since everyone is at work or school, he hasn't really been sick off work before so he did not know this was what to expect.
He drove near his house to see a car in his driveway. A sports car. "What the fuck?" He said curious to find out who's car that was. It was a brand new Audi. "Must be Lisa" he said to himself. Lee parked on the kerb outside instead of the drive and waited in the car for movement in the house such as Lisa putting bags on her new car or moving furniture. Lee takes off his seatbelt and gets his book out of his case and begins to read. After 10 minutes there still wasn't any movement. Lee realised the door was slightly open.
Lee got out of his car and walked towards the house acting cautiously. He was nervous to confront Lisa since they had 'broken up' so he hovered on the front doorstep for a few minutes until he had the guts to walk in. He looked around the front doormat to see two sets of shoes knocked out of place. A pair of high heels and some smart men's work shoes. He looked up in horror to see a trail of clothes up the stairs consisting of a tie, shirt belt and bra. Lee dropped the case on the floor beside him making a loud crash.
These items of clothing weren't his, the car wasn't Lisa's and he knew what was going out. Lee clenched his fists and he heard scrambling upstairs. Lee began to breath heavily and the colour in his face turned back to normal. The rage inside him boiled his blood he began to pace up the stairs.
