He parked the car on the hill where I was with Hayley and Kadie, on the playground. I got out of the car and went to sit at the table, he followed lighting up a cigarette.
I took a good look at him, he looked bad, he was pale with big under-eye bags. His eyes were empty of any life, he looked like he lost some weight and I felt a pang of pain in my chest.
I bit the inside of my mouth, I can't feel anything toward him. I am better than that, I have to love myself more.
"You look good." he broke off the silence and leaned on the table looking down at me. Smoke came out of his mouth and he immediately took another one in. So his smoking got worse, maybe that's the reason he was looking this bad.
"Why wouldn't I?" I look to the city, feeling the wind playing with my hair.
He chuckles, "I thought I meant more to you, I guess I was wrong." his voice was laced with venom once again, he wanted to make me feel sorry for him. But no I won't, I can only feel sorry for myself for wasting my time on him.
I stay quiet, squeezing my hands together, I won't show him how mad I am and how crazy he made me. He doesn't deserve it, not even this but I only realize that now.
"I still love you-" I look at him in disbelief and start to laugh maniacally. He ruined me and now I am going to ruin him.
"You fucking don't, you never did." I get up and put a finger on his chest, my eyes were as emotionless as the could be, "That's not loving, you want me so you can feel better about your self. The truth is you are nothing, worthless Jesse, you only make people feel like shit when they are around you. You know it too!"
I laugh and take a step back, "I loved you, fuck... I adored you, I worshipped you. I was so fucking blind to this thing we had I called it love. You made me feel worthless, you hurt me so many times. I thought all those slaps and punches were because I deserved them."
I am so glad I finally realized I was stronger then I thought, he was strong when I let him and he took his anger out on me because I didn't know better. I took all his punches and still went on to give him kisses and hugs that he didn't deserve.
I was so blind.
His eyes were full of remorse, but I am not going to fall for it, "And I am sorry, give me just one more chance I can get better." he grabbed my Hans pulling me closer to him and I pushed him back, "I will treat you the way you deserve to be treated, I can't live without you-" I pushed him back, he stumbled and fell on the table.
"Don't touch me again." I breathed out, he nodded and looked down, "You are going to leave me alone, it is for the best. I am better off without you, just leave me alone." I turned around, wanting to leave, but not before I hear him say.
"Fine," I stopped waiting for him to continue not turning around, "If you want that I will respect it, just answer my calls sometimes just so I know you're okay." I didn't say anything and head back home.
