Poppy
The past: The night of the party.
Have you ever found yourself trapped in a moment you cannot escape, like
realizing you’ve forgotten a Christmas gift on the morning of the holiday,
feeling the inevitable disappointment that will shadow the festivities? That
same inescapable dread consumes me as Andrew’s kisses become more
insistent, a silent prelude to a chapter we’re on the cusp of turning.
I can tell from the way Andrew is kissing me that I can’t stop him
either. It’s been months of trying to prolong something I should desperately
want. I should want to have sex with my boyfriend. I should want to feel
what sex feels like and take our relationship to the next level.
I should but…
But…
It’s not that I’m not ready; I think I am.
There in lies the truth. Hesitation.
So I’m not ready.
This isn’t a conversation where it’s an, ‘it’s not you, it’s me,’ in my
case, it’s not me. It’s Andrew.
Yes, I know our relationship isn’t the best, but love isn’t all happy
moments. Right?
When was the last time you were happy, Poppy?
I’m smart, really I am. I know I should leave him. I know that his
words are manipulations to mold me into the ideal girlfriend he wants.
I know when he hits me, that should be the final straw.
I know.
I.
Know.
Yet here I am attending a party wearing the clothes he told me to wear
because, well, I might be a very smart woman, but that doesn’t mean I’m
not also scared. Scared people do; well, we sometimes do nothing because
that is less scary than actually doing something, like leaving the man I
thought was the perfect guy.
The music from the party in his pool house thumps like war drums in
the distance making thinking harder, and it gives me a good excuse to just
stop thinking for a moment. Yet again, do nothing.
We left the pool house and came to his main house, a place he doesn’t
let others venture inside, but tonight, I get the chance to. Andrew wanted
quiet and some space, which makes me wonder why he decided to throw a
party if only to hide away from it.
