a//Abandon
"Leave."
He comes three times a day and his incessant knocking never seems to stop, even when I think it's just my imagination. I don't know anymore. But sometimes he comes in, knowing that I won't give in. Today is one of those days.
"Look at me," he says, his voice worn down. I made it that way.
"How many times do I have to tell you to leave?" I get onto my feet and whip around. My hands are in tighter fists than I can ever remember being directed at him, even when he'd make fun of me and even when he... betrayed us. "I don't want to see your face anymore. I say what I mean and I'm telling you to leave me alone!" I hardly said a thing at all, and I'm already panting. I can't bear it; I don't think he can either.
"Naruto," he whispers. He's frozen still. My foot moves forward and I'm rapidly sobering. I forget sometimes how much I really love him. But before I can make another move, he's gone.
He doesn't come anymore.
"That's right, abandon me," I say softly, burying my face in my pillow. "Because we were never good for each other in the first place."
I think I've been lying to myself.
