Ashiteru

Water is Rough, August 30. One Year

Summary: Miku has always felt right with her boyfriend, Len.

But what happens when Len is a abuser and their love threatens to waver?

(Story told from future to Past.)

Miku

I lie on the bed, looking at the pieces of shattered glass, originally, it was shaped in a heart. My heart, for Len.

I looked around, I was surrounded with memories. Shards of destroyed wooden jewelry, A shredded picture of Len and Me, some cracked CDs by Gumi and Luka.

And the glass shaped heart. Len knew. He knew how much I worked on that, why do he still break my heart in every possible way?

I guess deep, down inside, I'm like this mess, churned and mess up, damned in every way.

My lips are cracked, bleeding, staining my white sleeve every time I wiped them, my heart is thumping, but not for anyone.

Len is selfish, he doesn't know what he does. He rips away my heart and leaves me with nothing, the door slamming when he left.

All I know now is pain, one big wave, and it coarse through me over and over, relentless and mercilessly.

I lay back on my spine, the glass cracks due to my weight and the back of my shirt is stained with red roses.

My red roses, for Len.

It's nearly dusk, how long was I here? I don't know anymore.

My mind is fuzzy, and the cicadas song is luring me into a trance.

Once, the darkness was our friend, hiding us from dangers, but know it has left with Len.

No one can protect me from this horrible sting and this damned world that's so mean, I don't know what he meant when he was leaving.

To break something else? Or to leave just so he can't break me.

I don't even know how, in one year, everything had changed me.

August 23.

Eleven Months. Twenty Four days

Even told Len has always told me about his father, I haven't met him yet.

Well, I have met him, but he wasn't even considered human, too normal to do those things that Len had told me about his father.

His father, the monster was a myth, a villain in a really wrong fairy tale.

But I know right now, what Len said was true, I know right now, that I'm staring at it with my own eyes, as the flame dance and licks the lattice that I knew I never believed anything he had told me.

All of his little fairy tales had came to life.

He's father was a sadist, crazy in everyway.

I hear crying, his mother is producing, she's hugging her feet to her chest, curled up in a ball.

Luckily we we're living in the country, if someone saw this, we'll all be arrested.

"I paid for this, I can do what I want!" Len's father rips another lattice and the fire crackles and burns through the air.

The pot of roses that Len treasured shatters to the ground, and the fire burns with might, gobbling up everything he feeds it to.

Len and I are in the corner of the garden, hidden nicely away by the shadows of the trees.

I want to pull Len's mother and hid her with us, but I can't. She's too near her husband.

I'm scared of him, and Len's mother's voice is begging him to stop, but there was no signs of relenting.

He's father is drunk, I can smell the whiff of Rum.

And he looks bigger, taller, stronger today, like a hulk.

A sober person wouldn't do this, He's mother had spent a month painting the porch, and he's parents would sit on it and admire the garden sipping their sweet tea.

But now's it's like a human grave-yard.

"Leeks, you don't have to be here." Len looks at me, Leeks was the nickname he gave me.

I don't reply but bury my face in his chest, melting my whole body into the rhythm of his heart beat.

His lengthy arms wraps around mine.

I hear the wood crackle and sizzle as his father rips another part of the garden.

It is half gone already.
