Deliver Us

How do you win back a love you threw away with a careless text message? How do you win back a girl who can't stand the sight of you?

Instead of penning the perfect heartfelt letter, or sending bouquets of roses to her doorstep, I followed Cassia from Arizona to New York City and moved in next door to her and her new boyfriend, Nick.

Cassia claims her relationship with Nick is built on concrete, that I can't touch what they have, but I see the flash of desire in her eyes whenever she looks at me, feel the quickening of her breath on my face whenever I get close.

I know better than to take her lies as truth.

Their foundation is built on nothing more than crumbling bricks and I'm wielding the sledgehammer that will bring it down.
