Love can Disappear

Love can disappear

"I love you" He whispered in my ear
I felt my face heat up against his
"I love you too." I whispered back.
His arms tighten around me before he he got out of bed
"Where you going?"
"I have to go to work"
"But today's Saturday"
"Yea but I'm doing overtime and I wanna make some extra money"
I looked down at my hands and said
"Do you remember that I had things
planned for us today? Do you know what today is?"
"Yea it's Saturday and you said you wanted to go out for dinner."
"Fine go! Whatever."
I got out the bed and went into the guest room. I slammed the door and
locked it. I heard his footsteps coming to wards me but I ignored him.
" babe what's wrong? What did I say?"
"Your going to be late!"I yelled at him
"Come on babe. I'm sorry for saying whatever I said"
I didn't respond
"Alright I'll see you later"
I listened to him as he walked away
I slid down to the floor and put my head between my legs. I reminded
him yesterday damn it! He always does this. But how can he forget
this. tears dripped down my cheeks unto my shirt.
" bye" Stefan said
"Peace" I said back
The front door closed and I ran to the window.
He went into his car but looked up at me through the window I was
standing at.
" I love you so much" I whispered against the window.

Later on that day Stephen remembered that it was their 6th year
together. Anna wanted to do something special. So he left work early
and went home.
But when he got there the door was open. The mirror by the door was
broken. The vase of flowers were splattered on the floor. The living
room's furniture was tossed and some had gashes on it. There was blood
on the white tile floor. There was a trail of it leading to the
bedroom. Like someone dragged themselves there. More blood was in the
room than the hallway. A knife was on the floor. Next to a bloody
figure. Anna's body. Her legs were open. There were bruises on her
thighs where the killer forced them open. Anna's face was pale. Her
eyes glistened with tears. Her hair was bloody. Stephen screamed her
name running to her. No! Not his Anna. His Anna who wouldn't even kill
a fly. Aye dios mio. Why?! He grabbed her into his arms not caring if
the blood smeared over him. She was cold to the touch.
He kissed all over her face and closed her legs. For gods sake. He
raped her. He knew Anna wouldn't dare cry in front of her murder. She
was strong like that. She showed no fear. But as he held her now,
tears that were unshed poured from her eyes. His tears blended into
hers making them a stream. She was staring at something from a
distance. He followed her eyes and saw she was staring at a picture of
them two a couple months ago. They were on the beach watching the
sunset. That was the last thing she saw. Them together. "Aye baby, if
I didn't leave" Stephen sobbed.
" I'm sorry I forgot. Please don't leave me. Please mama don't go.
You can't! I won't let you! I didn't give you permission!!! "

My body hurt. I have a terrible headache. Banging. Glass breaking.
Yelling. Blood. Raped...... My pelvis hurts.
" baby don't go." a muffled voice filled my ear.
" I'm sorry I forgot"
Oh thats Stephen
I want to tell him it's alright
But I couldn't find my voice
It's like my throat closed up
( baby I love you. Don't worry. Im going to go now. Don't cry over me. I love
you
It took all of my energy to cup his cheek and whispered I love you
I let the darkness take over me
I could no longer feel his arms around me. My eyes shut and I went limp
I saw a white light
" he didn't remember. Therefore you were killed. He played with your
love. He thought you will be there to comfort him when things got
bad. But thats not how it works. He lost you. He needed to learn to
not take love for granted cause something like this can happen." the
light said.........
