The next day Vance woke up on the couch again. He had tear on his face. He hurriedly wiped them off, and sat upwards. Kidd jumped up next to him, and placed his head onto Vance lap. He started to pet Kidd, as Vance blankly stared out across the room.
He was alone now more than ever.
What had he done? It was all his fault. He lost the only person he might have ever loved.
Vance wasn't hungry, nor sleepy, or even truly awake. He just wanted April back. Sure she wasn't perfect, but in some weird way, she was to him.
Vance looked at the spot where Kidd was now resting. Some how he had expected April to be there next to him. As if that whole night had been a dream.
But no new of April had come until four days later. Vance had stepped outside just as the sun had been rising. He had gone outside to get he paper but instead was struck by something else on the bottom step. On the frosty ground was a letter.
It was a blank envelope. Vance had second thought about opening it, but picked it up anyway.
He went back inside from the cold mist of morning, and stood there in the doorway.
He opened the letter in a hurry, for reasons he could not explain.
In side was a thrice folded piece of paper with some writing on it.
Vance unfolded it and began reading.
"Dear Vance,
As you might have expected, I have left town and by now am long gone. I am truly sorry for those things I said the night jealously filled me. You're a nice guy. And one day I'm sure you'll find someone who fills all your expectations. You will never see me again Vance, so don't come looking. You see; by the time your done reading this letter I will be dead. Face it; you and the world would be a lot better without me. I was holding you back from something else you needed. And the world, never saw me, or even noticed me. I will miss you, and I'm sure you'll think of me. But promise me you'll go one with your life. Once I did really love you. But now it's over, all of it.
Good bye Vance.
Deepest thoughts, April"
Vance fell to the floor and landed on his knees. Tears streamed down from his eyes and his body shook widely. The letter slipped out of his hands and onto the cold floor.
Vance's frozen lips whispered her name, "April…"
