My excuse of having to work won't have satisfied him.

I know it. And I hate the way I anticipate his inevitable visit to my house sometime tonight.

Helen's words echoe through my head, but apparently my heart's gone deaf. It flutters just at the thought of Cal.

And I will be standing all alone in the cold along with every one of his one night stands. Every result of his drunken nights.

My mind refuses to be a statistic, but my heart wants nothing more, than to be a casualty of his war.
