Christopher and I were childhood sweethearts. He promised we'd marry once we were old enough, vowing to stay together forever. During a college sports event, Christopher tripped me to help a struggling student win 30 dollars in prize money. I fell and broke my ankle. After two weeks in the hospital, Christopher finally visited, but only to justify his actions. "Queenie is from a poor family. She even works on weekends to make ends meet. She really needs every penny she can get. Don't be so petty, Emily." He had no idea that, after he left, I told my mom, "I don't want to marry Christopher." Christopher, you broke your vows first.
