$3.53 and a Pickle

We’d been having trouble for a while, I won’t lie. We were arguing, avoiding each other. When I went to New York for the weekend, I did a lot of thinking; about how I had acted, about what I wanted from a relationship.

By Sunday night when I got home, I was ready to talk it out. Immediately after opening the door I realized she wasn’t. All her stuff was gone. All the furniture that hadn’t come with the apartment was gone. She even just about cleaned out the fridge. I had just enough cash for a burger and fries.
