Divorce was a miserable thing. Quite honestly, John didn’t think he could endure much more of this sadness.

He’d lost basically the only thing that mattered in his life, he only kept going for…well…you.

You’d been helping him through this tough period, kept him sane. Honestly without you, John didn’t know what he would have done.

You were an Angel to him, helped him find meaning in the little things: quiet days at work, morning coffee, a cigarette after a long day. Usually such mundane things John completely glossed over but now he seemed to find peace in them.

There were always bad days though. Today was one of them.

John had his head in his hands, clutching at the brown coils on his scalp. He missed her. God did he need that sweet smile, gentle touch and adoring kiss right now.

John practically jumped out his skin when he felt you touch his shoulder, immediately grounding him. “I’m fine” he shot quickly, wiping the tears that threatened to spill from his eyes.
