Bearly in Time
“Her eyes were dry and scratchy and her mouth was parched. It felt like all of the liquid in her body came rushing out of her eyes on the seven hour drive home, pouring out until she had nothing left.
She glanced up at the grim apartment building through her bug splattered windshield. She didn’t know why she came back here but she had nowhere else to go. She couldn’t face her nosy mother with all of her questions of why she was back so early and not gone for the week like she had originally said.
Rebecca was devastated. Even more so than when Mark had cheated on her, which she found strange. She had only known Connor for a little over twenty four hours but it felt different with him. It felt like they were soul mates. Boy were you wrong.

She had pulled into a small motel and curled up on the hard bed in a fetal position and stared at the peeling, flowered wallpaper all night. She awok...e in the morning to the sound of a semi-truck in the parking lot and rushed to the dirty bathroom to throw up again.MoreLess
