the door opened to our small apartment and i saw you walk through late that night when i first found out about her earlier that day.

"hey, baby."

"hi."

you seemed surprised with my short greeting.

i was too.

i usually jumped up to greet you after a long day.

"are you okay?"

you asked after walking over to me and pulling me in for a long kiss.

i saw for a vivid second the memory of her lips on yours.

i nodded at you.

you seemed a little reluctant to leave the subject but i flashed you a big smile that didn't feel right.

so fake.

like your love for me?

maybe our relationship.

thoughts of doubt blocked my brain that night.

when i woke up to a cold bed i cried the rest of the morning.

i just love you so much.

please love me back.
