I had the best intentions but I could still hear the ringing in my skull from her heavy right hand. She raised it quickly and buried in my jaw that I felt two of my teeth loosen. The pregnancy test in her either hand with clear results that she was not pregnant.
The shock from that revelation was even more severe than that 9.9 out of 10 slap that I received. I went to long term memory and she wasn't in it. I saw no future with her and only realized it when I had to consider my future with her.
I had to break loose and I could see the hope slide away from her eyes. She went from seeing the world in me to seeing nothing at all. She was moving in slow motion, with a baby that could have been with a future that could not have been.
I would have caught that second round if I hadn't seen that Mayweather fight. I lunged back and she moved forward and missed. Shelost her feelings in that miss and its as if all at once, I didnt matter.
She stopped and then walked away like she was in a dark corridor moving out of the light and into something else whether it was for better or for worse. She did not know the future but it had to be something better than this.
And just like that, she was gone. I had the best intentions, I think.
