"EVERYTHING IS YOUR FAULT! YOU ARE THE ONE THAT RUINED ME! YOU WERE THE ONE WHO NEVER MADE ME HAPPY IN OUR FINAL DAYS OF BEING TOGETHER. IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT AND I CAN'T BELIEVE I HAVE EVER LOVED YOU. YOU'RE NOTHING TO ME BUT ANOTHER EX OF MINE WHO I'LL FORGET IN THE NEAR FUTURE. I'LL MOVE ON AND LOVE SOMEONE ELSE AND THAT SOMEONE WILL NEVER BE YOU..."
I gasp as I quickly shoot up from my bed. I quickly look around to see no one.
"So that was a dream? God it felt so real. Those words were too similar to the ones David actually said to me when I screwed everything up. "It's all your fault." was exactly what he said to me when he walked out the door. I can never forget those four simple yet drastic words." I say to myself.
I rub my eyes to make my vision become less blurry. I turn my head to the window and see it pouring rain. I look down to see people both running and walking, escaping the outside just so they won't get soaked.
I've always adored the rain, hearing the little thuds on the rooftop whenever the drops of water would hit, the splashing and running around in puddles while wearing pink rain boots, and most of all, the after effect. Once it's cloudy and dark, then it's sunny and light, sometimes there's even a beautiful rainbow. It kind of reminds me of those days when you're upset and you feel like giving up, then the next day you're happy and everything's content.
I look up at the sky from my window and see it turn into a bright day.
"See, now that's what I'm talking about." I smile.
Whoa, a smile. I haven't done that in a few days, feels pretty good.
I slowly rise from my bed and walk into the bathroom. I look into the mirror and see a reflection I've always dreaded seeing. A heartbroken girl stares back at me, it's like I don't know who that person is in my own reflection. That's when I realize it, am I this broken without him? Can I not live without him? Of course I can, but it's hard. We've loved each other for two years, and I always hoped it would never end. I imagined us having children, specifically a boy and a girl. I imagined us having a wedding, a beautiful one with all of our friends and family members, but I guess that'll never happen, because of me. This is all my fault and I probably can't change a thing.
That's when I hear my phone ring.
I walk to the bedside table and see who the caller is, it's Kristen.
I smile and happily answer, knowing the only people who make me incredibly happy are her and my other close friends.
"Hello?" I say.
"Hey Liza, are you okay?" Kristen asks worryingly.
God it breaks my heart to know how worried my friends are. They know I'm terribly heartbroken, but hopefully I'll be okay.
"Now that you've called me, I'm doing fine." I smile.
"I'm so glad to hear that. Listen, I know this may not be the perfect time, but someone wants to talk to you." Kristen says.
"Okay? Who wants to talk to me?" I ask confused.
"David." Kristen says anxiously.
My heart flutters at the sound of his name.
"O-okay. Where is he?" I ask.
"He's here with Scotty." Kristen says and hands the phone over to David.
My heart's pounding gets louder and louder by the second.
"Hey.. Liza?" I hear his voice say.
"Uh.. hey David." I say anxiously.
"Listen, I'm sorry for walking out on you. I shouldn't have done that-" I cut David off.
"No. I should be the one apologizing. I was the one who said those harsh and cruel words to you. I honestly can never forgive myself for what happened that night." I say while tears were making my eyesight blurry.
"You were drunk babe, and I wasn't exactly sober either. You and I didn't have control with our actions." David sighs.
"Wait.. he just called me babe. After everything I said to him, he still loves me? So.. that means I-"
"Uh.. hello? Are you still there?" David asks.
"Um.. y-yeah. Sorry about that." I shake my head.
"It's fine. So, the whole reason as to why I called you is because I want to get back together. Liza I still love you, and I always will. I assume I just needed to take a breather. I don't know exactly why, but.. yeah. Just please come back." David says.
I can hear him crying.
"Yes, yes I'll get back with you." I say happily.
"Alright. I love you. I'll come by soon." David chuckles.
"Okay. I love you too baby." I say and hang up.
