Breakup

~June 1st 1989~

Evelyn and Kat. They had a five year long relationship, built solely on love and trust. Until something happened. Kat said that she was moving away, 'needed some time', but the thing was, Kat never called Evelyn. Just straight up ghosted her. She saw her in the street once and pretended not to notice Evelyn. The one thing that Evelyn did notice though, was the fact that Kat was with another woman. Her arm was gripped across her waist and her hand slinked over onto her upper thigh. The women was laughing at Kat, she had a cute girly giggle, her hair was blowing over her face in the wind.

In high school, everyone knew about them being together. It was meant to be a secret, but one day one of the jocks saw them kissing behind the school building. 'Fag' and 'dyke' was constantly shouted behind them both when people saw them. So they decided to get revenge, they went to prom together as a pair. Kissed right in front of everyone on the dance floor. Evelyn still teared up at that bittersweet memory. It was all over now anyway.

Luckily, Lyra had been there for Evelyn throughout the whole breakup process. Lyra was Evelyn's best friend, since kindergarten. Lyra was perfect, she knew everything about Evelyn, she knew how to comfort her when she was down, her smile never failed to brighten up a room. 

Lyra stayed with Evelyn for a few days after Kat left. She shared a bed with her. She even tried to kiss Evelyn once. Evelyn kissed back. She regretted it, she was still upset after the departure of Kat. She knew she didn't mean it, but Lyra did. Lyra had a crush on Evelyn, the thing was she was secretly a lesbian, nobody knew. Until that moment. Lyra apologised after the kiss, she slept on the couch after that.

Everything was falling back into place now, it was almost three months since the day Kat left. Evelyn felt happy for once. She lit up a cigarette and gazed down at her fading cuts all up her arms. There was so many of them. It started a couple of years ago, after her parents divorce. They kicked her out after they found out about her and Kat. After the breakup, it only seemed natural that Evelyn picked up the blade again. It was the only thing she knew. She felt ashamed of it, but what else could she do? It took away the pain.

Before she could think any more into it, the home phone rang. Brrrr brrr brrr brrr. Evelyn ran to the phone and picked it up. She heard a chirping voice on the line. Lyra.

'Evelyn! I've got some news I think you'll like'

'Oh yeah. And what could that be? There's a two for one sale at Walmart?'

'No silly! You remember that Cobain kid from school?'

'Yeah. He was awfully quiet. What about him?'

'His bands got this gig. Tonight, eight thirty.'

'Really? Do you know if he's good?'

'Well his bands got this record coming out in about two weeks. So think of that what you will. Be nice to see him again anyways.'

'Yeah. Meet at your place later then?'

'Ok see ya Lyn'

Evelyn smiled to herself. Tonight was gonna be good.
