Decent Essays
"Hayley! Hayley!"

I sigh and fasten my pace. I don't need to look to know it was my ex, Tristan.

He was trying to get back with me.

He said he wants to be my boyfriend again but the thing is, I don't.

I don't want him back.

Simple as that.

Not after this being the second time he cheated on me.

First with a 'friend' of his and this time, with someone he just met at the club.

I can't even believe that I forgave him the first time but I loved him so much back then and foolishly did so hoping that it was just a one time thing but boy was I

After I expressed worry to my friend that I would have nowhere to go during my long class breaks, she told me that Sparky’s Den is where she goes to hang out between classes. As I descended down the gray staircase, I pictured what the room would look like; with a name like Sparky’s Den, I saw a crowded room with dark brown wooden paneling on the walls, dim lighting, red, plush booths lining the walls, and gives off a sports bar atmosphere; you can imagine my surprise when I reached the bottom of the stairs and looked into a bland, white room with light brown finishes lining the walls with thirty-or-so tables and booths, and two long couches. As I walked through the opening in the room, I was hit with a cool blast of air. While the Memorial Union was cool, it was no match to the artic breeze of Sparky’s Den; as the cold air hit me, goosebumps rose all over my body.…
