" Dear God jade, you look ghastly," Marcia spoke as she entered my house.
" I'm trying to improve my appearance. but every time I try I end up looking shit, " I said cutting the potatoes.
" How did the visit with your mother go?" Marcia asked placing her bag on my couch.
I stopped cutting the vegetable as I zoomed out to the last visit Of Nicholas and me. Even though my mind found the peace that he was gone from my life; my heart could not agree with the fact that I still yearned for him.
Once he walked out mom had a rough time trying to get things wrapped around her mind. To this day she still asks me about him, it does nothing but opens up sewed wounds.
It had been two weeks.
Two whole weeks of trying to find me and crying late in the night. I watched as many happy movies as I could but nothing could fill the void in my heart, that created a never-ending circle to be loved by him again.
As much as I wanted him back-- I decided against it. There is a part when you want to forget that person and just move on but everything around you, from the nick of your shoes to the corner of the street reminds you a lot about them. That those stitched wounds tear open again.
" she is fine, doing well," I replied shortly.
" how is lover boy? Nicolas? " Marcia pulled.
" gone," I said nonchalantly
" gone? He left?" she pressed
" yes! and he is never coming back!" I yelled slamming my hands down on the table.
Tears coated my cheeks... This was the sixth time today that I cried. However ever each time it seemed to keep getting worse and worse. The unwanted pain would not just leave me alone and that's what frustrated me a lot.
" jade... Come on." Marcia said holding me in her arms.
" let's run you a bath," she spoke holding my hands and leading me to my bedroom.
I heard the water running as Marcia brought all my bath essentials and placed them on the counter.
" I've been through what you're going through right now and I know it hurts a lot." Marcia started.
" but there is power in discovering yourself jade. There is this magical experience you feel when you break down and grow yourself up again. It's like a whole new you and believe me when you discover your actual worth. It will be game over for these bitches." she completed as I let out a laugh and sob at the same time, wiping my tears I sniffed and Marcia made a disgusted face as she handed me a tissue.
" Get yourself cleaned up, I'm going to the place of blues tonight. It's a beautiful place where the scenery sets you at peace. Join me." Marcia spoke
" okay " I replied blowing my nose.
*---🌜🌑 Evening 🌑 🌛---*
The park was beautiful, as I took a stroll along with Marcia who happened to buy me a brownie to cheer me up.
We spoke a lot about things that happened in the last few months and how we progressed from it. Work, life, issues, movies and boys.
And mind you Marcia loves to talk about her fling things.
" and he left without another word, can you believe it!" she hollered
" Marcia... Do you still miss Alejandro?" I blurted looking at my shoes. She looked shocked by my questions.
It clearly threw her off guard
