As the sun stroke through my small 3 by 3 metre window, I gain my strength to wake up. It was just like my usual days, where I wake up first and get myself ready for my work; wearing nylon's light colored shirt with the newly invented pants which hugs off your whole leg, mostly due to the stretchy material. But before leaving, I always kiss my lovers forehead. So the plan was same today, I came out of my room all ready, steps are falling on the way to go to Evan's room.
"Evan, darling! I'm going off to work. I know you asked me to stay in, this weekend too. But you know the work. Duty calls, my love". I kept talking as I took the staircase. "And you know what, after I come back from today, we will go out for dinner. I prom--", I slightly pushed the door as it was already left open. Evan's bed is a mess already, but he ain't lying there as usual. "Evan, are you in the shower? Ev", I asked loudly before opening the door of the washroom. He wasn't there too. I checked my watch, the vintage brown belted wrist watch. The black background held the golden hands of the watch in seven past ten. The rough use of mine didn't effect the texture of the watch yet. It's been over two years. "Evan are you in downstairs", I speed up my pace and came downstairs. The hall where we had put up our pictures together when we first moved in here, are gone now. "Evan, did you put the pictures away? Are you in the kitchen? Why aren't you replying".
Before I finished my sentence I was already in the kitchen and passed the living room where I found no trace of him. But the kitchen had a different story, there was a note left beside crumbled eggs and toasted breads without butter just the way I like my breads to be. I smiled all alone standing in the kitchen thinking I must have forgot one of our special days. But Evan didn't, like always. To arrange the after part I bet he went out early, leaving breakfast for me, so that when I get downstairs all worried and tensed I would be blushing seeing his, this gesture. I picked up the platter, as I looked at the beam in the kitchen where calendar is hanging, I started to eat . There's no marked in today's place, means It can't be like I forgot the day. It's something new. Or else I always marked the dates on the Calendar so that I can see and work accordingly. Um so what can be special today? I took the note in my hand to read what's it saying;
I really thought we would work out but whatever I did last week, I don't think I want this relationship to work out anymore. I'm sorry M. -evan
I stood there like that, holding this note without a clue. I forgot to plan for this day, this day when Evan will abandon me. Me? I hit the ground immediately, the memory of him when I first met him.
