My boyfriend texted me: “I’m sleeping with her tonight. Don’t wait up for me.” I replied: “Thanks for letting me know.” Then I packed up her entire life and left her at that door… but at 3 a.m. my phone rang.

I closed my eyes.

That was when I understood that Emiliano hadn’t only been cheating on me.

He had also been using me.

“Don’t touch anything,” I told her as I stood up. “Tell the police he has my personal documents and that there may be fraud involved. I’m coming now.”

I got dressed shaking—not from heartbreak anymore, but from rage.
