''Shit! I'm late again!'' I exclaimed.
I pulled up to my hair in a high ponytail, then sprayed some light vanilla perfume all over my royal-blue velvet dress and paced myself outside. I'm going to be late to my boyfriend's sister's wedding shower.
This is the third time that I've been late to my boyfriend, Aidan's dates. And I can't help myself but I tend to procrastinate before going to the date. Aidan and I have been together for two and a half years.
We met in college and eventually started dating each other.
At first, the honeymoon phase was exciting. Not going to lie. It was pure and gentle and I knew that Aidan was the one for me.
But, after I got fired from an agency company due to the lack of attendance he became so vile. He never looks me in the eye at times and shakes his head in disappointment.
And sometimes I feel like he doesn't even love me.
''Shit, Shit, '' I said walking slowly on the stairs of the building and try to not make a huge appearance to the main courtyard. There, Aidan was surrounded by his family and friends laughing and drinking at the same time.
I then grabbed a small glass of wine and begin to sip before he gets rowdy on me.
''Catalina! You're here!'' said Amanda, Aidan's sister. She looks just like Aidan except for the eyes, her eyes are ocean-blue.
''Yeah, I made it!" I said nervously.
''You alright, you seem nervous.''
''Oh no, I just am a bit tired you know.''
''I feel you I always get one of those days----''
''--Catalina?!'' Aidan exclaimed from a mile away.
I gulped with sorrow as Amanda excuse her self to the other side of the venue. He paced to me with irritation on his face wondering why the hell I'm late.
''Where have you been?'' He said in a dark tone.
''I---I woke up late and---''
''-Catalina, you've been super late over the past weeks what's wrong with you?''
''Because I--I just haven't been okay with myself---''
''---Okay with yourself? it's that even an excuse?''
''----Can you please lower your voice...---'''
''--No! I'm not gonna lower my voice alright! You see, that's the problem with you. You can't be showing up late to events like this and expect me to be okay with it. Look you lost your job because you are too lazy and effortless-"
''--You're overreacting--''
''--How am I overreacting when you do this: over and over again.''
''-----I'm sorry it's just lately I've been depressed because of the job and I've been hopeless not knowing what to do---''
''--I can't do this--''
''--Do what?--'''
''--With you, I just can't do it anymore.''
''----You're seriously breaking up with me, this is absurd! I did nothing wrong, I know I continue to be late but you know I don't have a car, or don't have enough money to book a taxi---''
''----Catalina? Aidan? What's wrong?'' said Amanda.
''---Nothing Catalina was about to leave, she isn't feeling so well. Right?'' Aidan replied with a lie releasing a small evil smirk.
''Right, it was nice to see you, goodbye Amanda.'' I turned my body around and walked out to the venue. I walked from the venue all the way down to Melrose street and went inside the train station.
About fifteen minutes later, I came to my small apartment and slam the door behind me. I was pacing back and forth trying to cool myself off from what happened earlier. It was just so damn stupid!
Aidan is a dick for even breaking up with me for something that is unnecessary. He could've just gave me some options like: how about next time you call me? or let me help you out so you can get back on your feet. Never.
And I was the "problem".
Ha, fuck him.
Fuck Aidan.
I continually was breathing back and forth hard then begin to go to my room and tare everything apart. My clock, my pictures with Aidan, the stuff he gives for my birthday, Christmas, and Valentine's Day. Every single thing I could think of: I break it apart.
''Cat?!'' a voice echoed from afar. ''CAT!''
I jolt in fear and saw my best friend Sabrina standing there in shock. Sabrina is my long-time best friend since freshman year of high school. Her Puerto Rican sassy self always puts me in a better mood whenever we hang out with each other.
''Sabrina?! What the hell are you doing here?!" I said.
''Your door was open one and two what the hell are YOU doing? Breaking shit all over the place? This is not you!"'
''Yeah why don't you say that to Aidan.''
''What happened?''
''He broke up with me. Because I--- I was late and he-he was s-s-saying.'' I begin to broke down in tears trying to catch my breath. Sabrina then came to me with comfort and begin to brush my hair softly.
''Oh love, listen to me. You don't deserve a guy like Aidan. Okay? He's always been an asshole to you!''
''But I--''
''No, you don't love him! He treated you like shit. A real man wouldn't dare to make his girl feel insecure about themselves. I mean look at you, you're gorgeous as hell! Okay? Any guy would be lucky to have a girl like you.''
''Really?''
''Yes.''
She then wipes the tear away from my face and helps me get up from the ground.
''I must say, you know how to wreck the shit out of things. You must be bottling up your emotions well.''
''Yeah, but I can't deny it. It feels good.''
''Mm. you know what. Let's go to the club.''
''Sabrina, no I'm not doing that okay.''
''No, listen to me. You're going to the club with me tonight in downtown. Plus, you're single! Live a little.''
''What do I wear besides this?''
''Don't worry, I got you.''
