Excerpt:
"CLAIRE
Drama seems to be my middle name. I had it following me all my life. My childhood was a happy one, my parents loved me, my high school friends adored me. I was a shy girl, but I had wit and they loved it. Then came the first blow: Christian’s death.
He
was seventeen. He had the beautiful girls on his arm and the great boys
as his friends. He was dynamic and popular. Everything I wasn’t. But he
was also my brother and I loved him. He protected me and made me want
to be like him.
I
remember my whole past as it was yesterday. No matter how much I want
to escape it, the images are vivid in my mind. The police officer
telling my father that an accident happened. My mother sinking to the floor and crying her eyes out, me, confused and scared watching the whole scene as if it were a scene from a movie.
After
that day, we changed, my parents withdrawn from each other and from me.
They fought a lot. They even separated for a while.
Then came the second blow, my addiction, my pregnancy, just me being something else. Not my brother.
Without me knowing it, this was what made us family again. They
made peace with themselves, with the past, even with me. They were
becoming more like the parents I used to know, happy, whole. Yet, again,
everything I wasn’t.
***
I left Sebastian sleeping as I snack out of his apartment. We spent almost a week together going through my recovery. The bruises were gone, the scars were healing. We had hard, sweaty sex and passionate moments. We found out that
without sex we could still talk for hours. I finally revealed my past
to someone and he didn’t run, he didn’t hide, instead he hugged me and
kissed me and somehow that made me feel like the dirtiest woman on
earth. I did not deserve him, not after being so weak.
It’s
a very unnerving feeling, knowing that you should allow yourself to
receive happiness, but still, you don’t. For reasons beyond my
understanding, I feel like I could ruin Sebastian by staying with him.
Since I told him my story something’s changed, I could feel it in the
way he looked at me or how we made love. I can say “we made love”
because he was not fucking me anymore. He was tender and seeking my
pleasure more than before. And me, I have this knot in my throat all the
time. I don’t deserve him, I’m not whole. I’m always afraid he will leave, whatever we have now will end. And even though I am a different person this will definitely destroy me.
So I decided to run, leave him first. And I did. I haven’t heard from him since that day, three weeks ago."
