"Like starry nights
Rain soaked afternoon
And sunday mornings,
You were gone too soon. "

I stared at my phone dumbfounded. Many thoughts running in my head. My heart and head both were a mess and my eyes filled with unshed tears. I pulled my knees closer to me. How could he do that to me? I thought as a lone tear rolled down my cheeks. The warmth of my bedsheet couldn't comfort me anymore. He fired me. First, he molested me and then he fired me. I was the one at fault when I did nothing but tried to save myself.
Why did you do that Thomas?
I wiped my tears away and shook my head. I had a few dollars left in my purse, I had nothing more, nothing less. I didn't even know if I still was welcomed at Asher's place.
Welcomed? I chuckled bitterly thinking about that word.
What now, Sophie?
I had absolutely no idea what to do next but I couldn't spend my time crying. I sighed loudly and got up.
My first morning at my old place after a really long time felt weird. The place seemed to small compared to Asher's house. I felt like I was squeezing myself into the cubicle as I stood under the shower.
20 minutes later, I was done. Luckily, I had a cupboard full of my old clothes. I slipped on a yellow sweater and faded Blue Jeans. My eyes were drooping as I slipped my clothes on. I had dark bags under my eyes. My stomach grumbled and I frowned. I haven't had anything since last night.
15 minutes later, I found myself in a park nearby. Why was I even here. All those smiling faces were too much to handle. I felt like crying again. there was a slight ache in my head. I felt annoyed, then frustrated.
Ugh Sophie!! What is happening with you?
Maybe I was PMSing... or just hungry. My stomach grumbled and I closed my eyes and sighed.
Just hungry...
I had a few Dollars they weren't enough to feed me three meals a day. I could only buy myself a proper dinner every night so that I don't have to go to bed empty stomach, that's it. I pushed my hair back and looked down at my wrist watch.
12:35 pm.
A few more hours. I reminded myself. My eyes roamed around the park, everything felt weird. My emotions were all over the place, I couldn't even cry. I didn't want to. I was so done.
I looked down at the gorgeous ring on my ring finger and frowned. Is this still mine? I thought. Funny, I had such an expensive thing on my hands but nothing much in my pocket to feed myself. Life can be such a bitch sometimes.
