I’ve been going over and over in my head, trying to pin point the day, the exact moment his opinion of me changed, the moment his feelings for me slipped away. I obviously didn’t see it coming. Didn’t even see a warning. Now here I sit in the middle of my bed feeling like a worthless soul. Before he left this morning he told me I should do something to try and make myself look half way decent. What was that suppose to mean. Half way decent? And he used to tell me I was beautiful. Was it all a lie? What was it all for? I guess I’ll never know.”

Mona closed the book, thought about putting it back in its place, instead she threw it across the room. Tears falling down her face, she said to herself “I’m not worthless, and I’ll prove it. I’ll go out tonight and prove to everyone that I have so much to offer, but not because I’m lonely. I don’t need a man in my life to be happy, I’ll show them.”

She leaned over, picked up the phone and quickly dialed her sisters number.
