I mastered the courage of getting out of bed, I sighed. Where must I even start? I looked around and saw the ugly green-brown vase that Justin got for me on my last birthday.

I always hated it but never had the heart to tell him; now I was glad to get rid if it. What was I thinking again? Or right what must I start with? Clothes, I tied my hair back and started packing my clothes in the boxes.

The moment I lifted up my head I have almost packed most of my things inside the boxes, the sun has already went down and I am probably smelling at this point.

I stand up and start stretching my body, I stopped at the ring of my phone Bongeka it read so with a heart emoji at the end.

“Hello.”

“How are you?” She said getting straight to the point of course at this point I should not be so amazed “I heard about Justin.” Of course she heard that too how can I be so surprised when Justin had changed his relationship status and immediately posted a picture written my heart belongs to her, I found myself stalking his social media only to find a dagger each time stabbing me on my heart.

“Oh.”

“Yeah I am so sorry, I’ll understand if you can’t make it to the wedding this coming weekend.”

“I’ll come, besides I need a little vacation.” Getting out will definitely do me some good, although I had planned to come with Justin it didn’t matter; going alone will probably do me some good.

“Great, we’ll talk later I’m about to do some final dress fitting to see if I have not gained weight after all the food I have been shoving down my throat.”

We both said out goodbyes, I looked out the window and sighed in 2 days I’ll be out of this apartment that held so many memories that I desperately want to erase from my mind and I’ll also be far away not always wondering if I will bump into him in a grocery store or in one of my morning runs because I will be miles away from him probably sipping some cocktails under the Maldives stars.
