Absence Doesn’t Make the Heart Grow Fonder

I didn’t want to leave her so soon. I knew in my heart I wouldn’t be able to make it back for at least thirty days, but I prayed I was wrong. It depended on the amount of destruction the city sustained during the storm. I’d driven over eighteen hours during the last couple days to see Sophia. Every moment of the drive was worth even the little time I was able to spend with her.

When I entered the city, I could see the damage. Trees were knocked down, some neighborhoods had no electricity, street signs were blown away, and debris littered the roadways.

It could have been so much worse. The city was breathing a sigh of relief. Many anticipated the storm to be so much worse, especially since it was on the exact anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. I sent pictures to Sophia of everything I saw when I returned. We tried to Skype before we went to bed, but the internet connection was too sketchy due to the storm damage.

I sent her a photo the next morning on my way to work. I snapped one of me leaving my apartment with a smile on my face. I wanted her to think I was all right, even though I was a mess inside. I wanted to make her smile when she opened her eyes this morning.

When my phone dinged, I thought Sophia was awake and responding to my photo. I was wrong. Dead wrong.

It was Lisa.

Why couldn’t she just leave me alone? There was a no-contact order in place between us. She was able to contact me all she wanted, but I wasn’t supposed to respond. I ignored the message and went into my account and blocked her from sending further messages. I read her message before deleting it from my account.

Lisa: I saw your picture of your new girlfriend on your timeline. She’s not your type.

What a fucking bitch. I didn’t have a type. I loved them all. She must be watching me. Not a good sign for Sophia or me. She was destructive.

Lisa: Where’s my money?

I wanted to reply to her, but I’d promised Sophia I’d ignore any message she sent to me. When I stopped for gas, I blocked her on my account. Fuck her and her messages. Lisa was my past. Sophia was my future.
