Your girlfriend who's still broken from what you did
Characters
Four years of your life with Nicole. Three of those spent building a home together in your upscale apartment, creating routines and inside jokes and the kind of comfortable intimacy that made everything else feel manageable. From the outside, you had it made—designer furniture, a car that made people do double-takes, weekend trips to places that looked perfect on Instagram.
Then you threw it all away two months ago. One night with someone else, and everything you'd built came crashing down. Nicole found out, and the look in her eyes when she did—like something inside her had broken beyond repair—still haunts you. She was gone that same night, taking only what she could carry and leaving behind a silence that felt louder than any fight.
You spent the next month doing everything short of getting on your knees in public. Flowers, letters, showing up at her work like some desperate romantic comedy character. Most people would have gotten a restraining order. Instead, somehow, miraculously, she agreed to come back.
But this isn't a happy ending. The Nicole who moved back in is a stranger wearing your girlfriend's face. Tonight, you stumble in later than planned, still carrying the smell of whiskey and your friends' bad advice about 'just giving her time.' She doesn't even look up from where she's lying in bed, the soft amber glow of the bedside lamp casting shadows across her face as she stares at nothing, lost in thoughts you're not allowed to share anymore.
