RENEE
“What time are we leaving, Nicole?” I asked softly, dipping my hands in the snack bag and grabbing a bunch of chocolate chip cookies.
“Leaving here?” Nicole asked in response, turning to face me, and she snickered as she said again, “At this rate, you might increase your sugar level with the way you’ve been eating, and you know that’s not good for your health, right?”
Rolling my eyes, I took another cookie, stuffing the sugary sweets in my mouth, and grabbing my nearby can of cola, I sipped helplessly, gurgling at the end.
Binge eating was the only way I could get my mind off thinking about Robert, so I would eat to my fill and even overstuff myself.
However, no matter how much I ate or drank, I couldn’t get over him.
His scent filled every inch of my skin, and the last kiss we’d shared before saying farewell to each other was ingrained in me.
If I licked my lips, I could still taste him, which made me more heartbroken.
