My Life Would Suck without You

“Fat! Ugly!” A boy shouted in front of me.

             

“Skinny! Stupid!” I insulted him back.

 

That is our sixth fight that month. There was no day without a fight. I was so fed up with him. I hated him.

"I feel sorry for myself for ever liking you!” He shouted again.

 

“You think I don't regret it? What a waste of two precious years!”

 

 

"It’s even worse in my case! I even left so many better girls to be with an ugly one like you!”

 

“So many girls? I was the only stupid girl who wanted to be with a jerk like you!” I stood and pointed at him.

 

"We broke up!" he shouted, standing up too.

 

"Seriously? I should be the one who said break up!”

 

“Whatever. We broke up anyway, never text or call me again!”

 

“Don’t worry, I’m deleting your number! Deleted mine from your phone, and my photos too!”

  

He immediately took out a cellphone from his shirt pocket, “I'll definitely delete them, bad photos like these have to be deleted.”

 

I also took out my cellphone and deleted his contact and our photos, “Don't open Facebook yet! I’ll block you! Just watch out if you dare to block me! "

 

"Uhh .. crazy girl! I’m going to see another girl who is much better than you, like Sintia, Ernita, Maya, Anika, there are many.” He named my best friends one by one.

 

“Heartless boy!” I shouted.

 

He went out of my boarding house, and then closed the door, “Don't bother me anymore!” He shouted from outside. A few moments later I heard  him start his motorbike, and the sound grew farther and farther.

 

I threw a pillow at the door, “Fuck you!” I swore. Tears began to flood my eyes and flowed slowly down my chubby cheeks. I walked slowly toward the bathroom and stood still in front of the mirror, “He’s right, I’m ugly, fat.”

 

“This time, I will completely forget you Agung! Just look! Tomorrow my relationship status on Facebook will be engaged! Or married, if needed!”

 

I washed my face with cold water, and then went back to bed. Tears came back, jostling out of my eyes. Why did I fight with him? We always fought over small things, so small they were quickly forgotten. Like that day. We fought again, for whatever reason, I forgot. Huh… Why was I thinking about him again? We had broken up already! And that was our last fight!

 

I woke up to a knock on the door the next morning. I rubbed my eyes and yawned several times. It was seven o'clock, who the hell came to my boarding house so early? I lazily opened the door, there was a boy who was carrying a white rose in his right hand.

 

"Morning, my princess." He said while handing over the flower.

 

I smiled, "Morning, my prince." I replied, and then took the flower from his hand.

 

Both of us entered my room, "Let's take some photos.” He said.

 

I nodded, and then we took some selfies.

 

"I love you." He whispered softly in my ear

 

I hugged him, buried my face in his chest, "I love you too."

 

 

The previous day we screamed, cursed at each other, and said we broke up, but then we're all lovey-dovey again as if nothing had happened. There we were. That's the relationship we lived in. No matter how often we fought, how many times we insulted each other, and how often we said we wanted to break up, we'd always make up again. Needless to say sorry, just one warm hug, and all would be well. That was our relationship and it would be like this forever.

 

'Cause we belong together now, yeah

Forever united here somehow, yeah

You got a piece of me

And honestly my life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you ... *
