Romance
The day I was diagnosed with emotional dependency disorder, my doctor told me, "Your world can't exist without Ms. Reynolds's love."And so Audrey Reynolds became my emotional anchor. She put me first in everything, even turning down important projects just to stay by my side through treatment.It wasn't until the day my condition finally stabilized that she smiled again.Her childhood friend, Damon Walsh, smiled too. "I told you it couldn't have been that serious. Wasn't Preston just doing all this on purpose to keep Audrey tied to him?"That was the first time Audrey ever hit Damon. She forced him to apologize to me.But on the day Damon went to the bar, I only quietly said that my heart was racing.Audrey suddenly slammed the medication bottle down. "Can you stop being so selfish? Damon is devastated after his breakup! I spend every day revolving around you. Is it really too much to ask that I spend a few hours taking care of him?"If you want to have another episode, then go ahead! I've had enough!"She kicked all the medication across the floor, grabbed her car keys, and stormed out, slamming the door behind her.I said nothing. I only stared at the red marks I'd scratched into my wrist from anxiety as my breathing grew more and more difficult.
