Silent Partner

She was the last thing on my mind for so long. I had so much work to do, so many appointments, hands to shake, butts to kiss, ladders to climb. And she was so loving, so understanding, so kind, I tended to ignore her, to assume she would always be there for me.

And then she wasn't.

And the realisation of what I had lost made everything else meaningless. I drank, I stopped caring, I gave up.

And then I rolled my sedan on the interstate, drunk and high, crushing myself fatally.

She was the last thing on my mind.
