This morning, I wake, washing my tears masked face, I figure it's a brand new day, signaling a new me, a new year in the middle of the year for me. A new start of a broken heart.

Dominic, the man I had come to trust, the man I had grown to admire, was a murderer.My mind raced with questions. How could he have done such a thing? What drove him to commit such a heinous crime? Was the lady worth the death? was he an obsessed creature? And why was he telling me this ?Dominic's eyes locked onto mine, his gaze piercing through the silence.
