I watched Jack rise from the settee he had been lying on. He never looked over to me, not once. His feet met with the wooden floor as quietly as he could manage and I watched as he left the room, unable to tear my eyes away from him. I never in my wildest dreams thought I would be in the same room again.

It was all so much more than I could bear.

My body convulsed at the realisation he had turned into the very person my father told me he would most certainly become. I hated the fact that he had been right, when he had been so wrong about so many other things. I had always clung to the fact that leaving Jack when I did, would mean he could lead a different life from the one my father saw mapped out for him. I had known he was young and could easily be swayed. But I had hoped that once I was out of his life, all the awful things I brought to our relationship would leave too.

How wrong I was.

I don’t know how long I shuddered from the pain, or maybe it was shock leaving my body. I lifted a hand to my face as the spasms subsided, and touched my cheek. As ever there were no tears to be found.

I turned onto my side and faced the windows, slowly I began to see the colour in the sky outside changing. Wherever I was, I was about to watch dawn break. I wished I could appreciate the beauty in it. I had always loved the simple things in life, but now they generally gave me no pleasure whatsoever. I was so hell bent on surviving, accepting everything that was thrown my way, that I had shut down any feelings I had a long time ago. Only one person got to see the real me. I was convinced at times it was what kept us both alive.
