1 What Have I Done?

I searched desperately for a way to let him down gently. Damn, I thought to myself, you're the Queen of sarcasm and snarky remarks, but you can't go through with a break up?

He was still waiting for me to speak, his face showing a mixture of feigned disinterest and anxiety. That set me off. The last thought crumbled from my mind and I blurted out the first coherent sentence I could make.

"I'm breaking up with you, ok?"

His expression did not change.

"Yeah, sure, ok."

Oh God. What have I done?

Numbly, I walked away from him and rejoined my group of friends. It was too late now. There was no going back, but it was all for the best.
