The crash that broke through the last of her desperate hopelessness, was merciful, or so they said.

Merciful, indeed. Merciful, for now she knew how cruel that promise had been. How had she managed to hold onto those words, as the world around her fell to ash? He hadn't remembered her at all, and she doubted he dwelled on the indefinite promise he'd made her. He hadn't remained the same, that she knew. He had risen to the top, left her to watch from far below as he became the star he had always dreamed of being. To believe he would return for her just because he had said so was ludicrous.

Yet, if by some twist of fate, he did come back?

"I'll come back for you," he'd said.

Those vague words would be her undoing.
