I passed Geoff with pain in my heart to add to the pain in my head. Last night, I just wanted to forget the pain and forget the memory of his words, but in the end, he was the one who ended up taking care of me.
I decided to give Geoff one day to apologize. If he didn't, then I had to go. I can't live with this constant ache in my chest.
Want me. Love me. Own me.
The words sounded pathetic even in my own mind.
Marla, the cafè owner gave me a full time job once she knew that I graduated. I thought Geoff could come to my Graduation party, but that card seems to be off the table now.
I dressed in a pink polo shirt and jeans when I saw Geoff in my doorway. I opted to ignore him. He looked as drunk as I felt.
I put my keys and money in my pocket and stood in front of him. He was still blocking the doorway.
"Move."
"No."
I sighed. "What do you want from me that you don't already have?"
I watched him as his eyebrows furrowed and he stepped aside.
