Chapter 45: Crumple

My body crumpled to the floor when I could hear his foot steps going up the stairs. Footsteps are too nice of a word... stomping was better. I made him so angry and all I wanted was a conversation and some answers.

Eric did give me answers, but was it all worth it? I shouldn't have touch him and I did not even mean too. I knew I was in the wrong as soon as it all happened.

The glass rained down around the kitchen like diamond rain drops. Tears ran down my face and I screamed again before my knees hit the floor. It felt good to let go of all these emotions out at once. It felt.... freeing...
