“No-no that’s not it… people adapts… they adapt of different things… You’re scared… is that it?” She muttered.

“Scared of what??”

“Of this…of us… you’re scared of all of this…” She said in a low tone.

“What?! What are you talking about…?” I asked.

“And you’re scared of losing me…” It left me quiet. Was that it? I had to laugh… it sounded so arrogant; I just had to. It wasn’t a big laugh; she stayed quiet.

“Oh please…” I brushed it off.

“Would you just stay with me?” She said quietly.

“Don’t… don’t do this… don’t beg me too…” I said.

“What else am I suppose to do?”

“Let me be…” I said.

“Are you kidding me?? I can’t let you go!… I can’t let you go…” She said and this conversation is getting no where.

“C’mon Shane…” I don’t know what else to say to her. I walked passed her and she didn’t stop me this time.

“Wait… Carmen!” I heard she the steps behind me; catching up to me. “This-this is just a fight… right? I mean… it’ll be over in the morning… Carmen! Baby….” I opened out bedroom door and she got inside as well.

I can’t go back on my words now; I started to gather my things. It was only a few days’ clothes and my personal belongings. I didn’t know where to go; I should call Alice… that’s the only thing I thought at the moment. She stood there a few steps in front of the door.

“I… I need to get away… clear my head… okay?” I said; my mind was running 120 miles per hour. I didn’t know what the hell to do and where the hell to go. She walked up to me and grabbed my bag away.

“You really are leaving me?” She asked me. I can’t answer that. “Am I not gonna see you anymore??” She said; and she looked like she was going to break any second… but she didn’t.

“For a while… like I said… I just; I need time to think…” I said.
