Why did you come here? Its been much too long...

"Maybe one day...", she said as she flicked on the light in the dusty old room.

The room was instantly illuminated. You could almost hear the roaches scurrying to avoid the light. She looked over the room, only to see some old furniture, a grandfather clock that never worked, and an ancient three legged coffee table that leaned in the corner (oh, they had much fun that night..).

She didnt know who she was talking to, or why she had said it. At first she stumbled over her thoughts, then finally remembered that dinner was on the table and the guests would be there any minute. She started to leave but looked back to turn the light off. She paused for a moment and glanced over at the clock that had never, not even once, worked for her.

"maybe the weights weren't installed properly", she said quietly.

And here she was, once again, talking to herself... Wondering....

Why had she come to this room after so long? Why was this room even in her house? It could be anything, a new game room or even a luxurious living room. But it has remained the same,.... ever since he left.

Why did he leave??
...How could he?
