She paced the floor steadily.
Back and fourth
Back and fourth
Back and fourth
She glanced up at the clock haning from the wall.
"10:30..... he's 45 minutes late" she said aloud
The young woman quickly sat, she shook nervously and swayed back and fourth, back and fourth, back and fourth.
She repeated this rythmatic moment for a few minutes until she couldn't stand it anymore. she slowly picked up the phone and dialed his number for the 13th time. No answer. "what could he be doing.... where could he be" she asked her self anxiously. That was it, she was too through. if he didn't walk through that door within the next ten minutes she was going to leave him.
She began to count down as she walked to the master bedroom.
Nine minutes
She pulled out her suitcase and pulled out the drawers, she quickly compiled everything into her luggage.
Seven minutes
She grabbed all her shoes, purses, jewlery.... everything was going so that he would know what he lost.
Five minutes
She stopped and looked around.... she saw a picture of them by the bed and she picked it up and threw it.
Three minutes
" How could he" she yelled
"Three years and for what...... nothing"
Tears slowly roled down her eyes as she reached out for the doorknob. she slowly turned it as she glanced back up at the clock...... one minute left. For that final minute she stood there waiting to hear a click in the locks of the door, but there was nothing. complete silence.
Time up.
She slowly opened the door, head down, face drenched in tears.
As she walked out into the hall she looked up and there he stood with a dozen roses and a heart shaped box.
" Happy Anniversary" he said with a smile.
She began to cry even more as she fell into his arms with a warm embrace.
