Camila pours yet another glass of wine while a slow record plays in the background. The events she endured plays over and over in her mind.
"Eight years in the fucking trash."
Shawn, her now ex-husband, established himself as a singer. Long hours and several tours in the works strangled their marriage. Although their divorce seems amiable, Camila has unresolved feelings.
Camila slams a photo framed of the two together on the table. "I wanted to try!" Tears stream down her face, hiccups arise. Camila's heart races. "I wanted to try..." her voice calmer this time. She sips more of her wine leaving the glass empty. Camila gathers the finalized divorce papers off her coffee table. Her fingers trace over Shawn's signatures. "Was it easy for you?" Her voice becomes hoarse as another hiccup escapes. Camila thought she could move past her anger, but it seemed impossible.
A whimper falls from her lips as it continues to quiver. Camila wipes her tears from her face as she takes a deep breath. "I can do this."
"I can do this."
"I can do this."
She continues to repeat herself as if she is ingraining a lie into her brain. She clutches the wine bottle in her hand letting out a sigh. She takes off the cork and drinks.
"I can do this."
