The long drive to work helped clear my head, it made me realise that I think the idea of marriage was stupid. Who spends on a fortune on someone that they'll cheat on a week later?

Everybody I had been with prior to Emily, we never thought of marriage, we never even dared to utter the word white unless it had to do with sauce.

To say I was grateful that I didn't see Emily at my work this morning would be an understatement, slouching down in my officer chair...

I was able to keep my head focused on the day in front of me.

That was until I needed some air, god the breeze on my face felt overly needed, almost as if I had been running in the heat and that moment when I stood still, my body had soaked in the cool air.

Watching the world around me almost felt different, almost felt like I was seeing for the first time.

This felt different.

This felt new.

I wasn't in love.

But I loved Emily.

I loved Emily. I moved into her house. I cooked for her. I touched her.

What did Emily do?

Asked to cook for me?

Asked me to spend nights at her house?

I couldn't even remember if she even touched me without me starting first.
