I took the cupcakes out of the oven. They looked perfect. I started adding frosting.

My phone vibrated. One new text from Ryan! I was really excited as I washed my hands, grabbed my phone, and unlocked it. Ryan was coming over tonight to celebrate my birthday.

-"Hey Emma. Can I call you? We need to talk.." The text said.

-" Sure!"

In less than a minute, my phone started ringing.

-"Hey Ryan!" I said, really excited.

-" Hey Emma.." He mumbled. Something was obviously up.

-"You okay?" I asked.

-" Yeah.. I want to make this conversation short and clear, though.."

-" Uh.. sure. I'm listening."

-" I'm really sorry, Emma, but I think both of us would be better off without each other.."

His words echoed in my head. "Without each other", "without each other"..

-" Emma?" He said, confused.

My lips quivered. I hung up and placed my phone on the table. I looked at the nearest chair, about 6 meters away. I must sit. I wanted to walk towards it, but I couldn't. Before I even started walking, my vision became blurry. I reached out to anything near me, but I slipped and fell into the blurry world that was awaiting me.
