“I know it’s not me,” I say. And perhaps I say it with a little more venom than I mean to, but again, I can’t help it. She’s making me mad. She keeps doing this. She keeps running when I want her to sit down. She keeps going when I need her to stay.

“I can’t do this anymore, Ethan. Do you understand?” Her face is beseeching me, and I soften to her, I really do, but I’m also still angry so when she puts her hand on my shoulder, I shrug her off.

She nods like she understands, but of course she doesn’t. Because if she understood, she wouldn’t leave. Again.

“I’m sorry,” she whispers. Carrie leans across and kisses me on the cheek. I want more from her, but of course she doesn’t give me more.

The bus has turned up and she’s gone; climbing the steps into the bright light of freedom and away from the rainy, dark streets of our hometown. And then she’s gone, and I am alone.

All alone without my Carrie.

I stand there, cold and wet, for far too long.

The streets are soaked, the world a blurred and dirty image.

I hate the rain, I think. I hate it because it washed Carrie away.
