Of course, I wanted to say so much to Brody, but my anger was overwhelming. I was rendered speechless, and it didn’t feel good.
“I love you,” he said, but those words were meaningless. Brody was fixing to break up with me, and I could see it from a mile away.Fine, let him do that, I’ll show him.
I gave him the look, and he gulped.
“It’s over,” he said. “If we break it off now, we’ll both be better off. You know that I don’t want to see you get killed.”
I put my head up, and folded my arms.This man really thinks he can just dump me like this?
Forget him. After all I went through just to be with him.
“Adriana?”
I walked out of his house, and made my way back. He tried to offer me a ride back home with his driver taking me, but I refused.
The pain of him being out my life didn’t hit me until the early morning.
Once I got back home- it must have been four, maybe as late as five am - I could feel the empty void in me filling with despair. I ugly sobbed once I was alone in bed, and cried myself to sleep.
When I got up, it felt like a hangover, except with emotions. Everything felt backward. All sound simply ceased to exist, but it had also amplified the harsh sounds of the morning birds cawing outside my window.
And seeing father was the worst. The clank of his fork against his plate as he was eating breakfast was deafening. I couldn’t hear a word he said. It didn’t even make sense.
“Those guards bother you last night?” He asked.
“No.” I ate my food, hoping he’d leave me be.
“Well, I have a full day. Money doesn’t grow on trees,” my father said. “Someone’s going to pay up.” Thankfully, he was getting ready to go, and I could finally be at peace.
Except once he left, I was alone with my mind.What’s so wrong with me that Brody would just leave me like that? I thought he loved me. He did say that he couldn’t stand the thought of something happening to me.
As awful as I felt, I wasn’t the kind of girl to sink in a self-destructive depression. But there was something gnawing at me-did he break up with me to protect me or did he just not love me?
I had always been the one to do the dumping, or my father would run out a boy. And if that was the case, I wasn’t interested in him anymore. But Brody had brought me back home, and made sure I was safe- father be damned. And, before I had gotten involved with him, the two had been really good friends, Brody being the closest thing to a best friend my dad would ever have.
Surely he didn’t throw away his friendship with my father just for the sex?I had been so sure of it, that I gambled my entire heart on him. And now I was left to be broken.
No. I’m not broken without him. I’ll just let him know what he’s missing.
Resolutely, I got my phone and started taking photos of myself in cute poses. Since I had no more sexy lingerie, I had to be more creative with how I was going to make him regret leaving me. He was going to see just what he was missing out on.
I had to leave plenty for the imagination. Luckily, I still had my schoolgirl uniform, and a few other props to really leave him sweating.I know he’s going to regret leaving me after he sees these.
After I sent him several of the photos, I waited for a response. I had to delete the texts because one of the guards would come in to check, but I was safe for at least another hour. So I waited for a response from Brody, but none ever came back.
I texted him:
Don’t you want me?
Don’t you need me?
Don’t you love me?
My texts were becoming desperate instead of tantalizing because there was no other emotion that I felt. There was simply no way he could have rejected me. One minute he’s saving my world, and the next, he just decides that it’s over.
I texted him some more.
It can’t be over.
