Molly
My rage-fueled escape-my-life plan fizzles at the Empire
International Airport.
Thwarted by ticket prices.
What was I thinking? Airlines don’t offer “broken heart” discounts.
A last-minute ticket for the places I’d want to go would drain almost
everything I’ve managed to save in my bank account.
Defeated, I turn away from the ticket counter and shuffle toward a low,
white bench by the floor-to-ceiling window looking out over the parking
garage. Fatigue drags my butt down to the bench where I sit with my back
to the window. I rest my elbows on my thighs and drop my head into my
hands. Every nerve from my shoulders to my fingertips throbs, triggering a
cascade of misery to rain over me.
The sound of shattering glass echoes in my mind.
I destroyed the car Griff gave me. The car we lovingly restored together.
No, no, no.
Every time I think I’ve pushed “the big bad thing” that made me take a
bat to the car out of my head, images of Griff and Kiki in bed together
replay.
The only man I thought I’d ever love betrayed me for all the world to
see.
Running away won’t solve this pain.
Forget my lack of escape funds, I have a job, and my internship this
summer. Remy went out of his way to secure the internship for me. It’s
important for the career I want to have one day.
Why should I give up my future just because Griff decided to stick his
dick where it didn’t belong?
“You all right, miss?” a rough but kind voice says from above me.
I tip my head up. Awareness that twin hot, wet trails are running down
my cheeks chases a response out of my mouth. Embarrassed, I quickly wipe
the tears away.
“Huh?” I mumble stupidly, staring at the airport security guard standing
a respectful distance away.
“You, um, look upset.” Alert dark brown eyes bore into mine. “Do you
need help?”
Help getting over my boyfriend. But I don’t think this stranger can help
me with that need. “No, no. I’m fine.” I force a quick, fake smile. “Thank
you.”
He’s young. Probably not much older than my brother. And apparently
persistent. “Are you waiting for someone?” he asks.
Do I look suspicious or something?
“Not really.” Way to give a vague answer, genius. He’s going to call for
backup any second.
“Here.” He reaches into his pocket and pulls out a flat green-and-white
card. “You look like you could use a hot chocolate. Starbucks is on the
second floor.” He tips his head toward the escalators.
Empire International is only “International” in name. The airport’s small
—I can see the green-and-white Starbucks awning from where I’m sitting.
But I nod and reach for the card. “Thanks.”
He studies me as I take the card from his hand. Our fingers briefly
touch. His eyebrows pinch together.
Crackers. What if he’s not worried I’m a safety risk? What if he
watches Supreme Underground Fighter? What if he saw the episode last
night and feels sorry for me because I’m a pathetic loser whose boyfriend
couldn’t wait to cheat on her?
