He did this; I fucking know it. There’s no way Nash would otherwise cancel tonight, no way in hell unless someone made him do it.

“Son of a bitch!” My rage-laced voice reverberates through the house, and I kick the bedroom door close, anger and frustration burning me from the inside. My leg nearly makes a hole into it, and if that doesn’t sum up my whole life accurately, I don’t know what does.

My reflection flashes in the full body mirror beside my bed, and seeing the pretty, black dress licking my body only spurs the murderous feeling. The phone is still clutched inside my fist, and the first urge is to throw it across the room and scream my lungs out.

I roar, but instead of breaking the phone, mostly because I can’t afford a new one, I tap a text, my hands shaking from the resentment. Now, the few drinks I had to calm my nerves for going on a date work as fuel, and I let it all out on him.

Me: Thank you for ruining my fucking night, again. I’ll swear I’ll find you.

The response comes within seconds.

Unknown: And you’ll kill me? Very Liam Neeson of you, Ada.

I don’t get to reply when another one follows.

Unknown: Besides, I did you a favor. You don’t want to date a guy like Nash Day. You deserve so much more, the entire world for starters, and he can’t give it to you.

Me: What is with you men, thinking you know what women need. Spoiler alert, creep, you fucking don’t. For starters, I wanted dick tonight, not the world, and in case you didn’t know, there’s a difference between those two.

Now, the phone stays silent, and after a few seconds of waiting, I groan and toss it onto the bed, slipping out of the dress. The one I used hours to pick, and for what?

To get my night ruined.

As I start to gather my hair into a bun above my head, the phone buzzes. For a moment, I consider ignoring him.

Even though I want the motherfucker to stew for what he did, my nerves won’t let me, and I grab it, cursing as I do.

Unknown: I’m sorry, but it’s a no-go. I’d love for you to have everything you want, but I have my limits. I know you can get off by yourself, baby.

This piece of shit.

Me: Fuck you. I’m a human being, and I’d fucking like to feel like it, but thanks to you and your psychotic ways, I’m doomed to be miserable and alone.

I drop onto the bed, letting out an agitated cry. Every inch of me hurts; the pent-up longing for someone to want me, touch me with determination to make me feel good, is gnawing my bones. I
