Ten. That number was haunting me. Everywhere I looked I could see reminders of it—ten flowers on a tree, ten people in front of me in line, ten units of liquid needed for an experiment. As I watched the days tick away on the calendar that I kept on the wall of my office, I wondered what it would be like when the tenth day finally came. How distraught would I be when I woke up that morning? Would I cry my eyes out for what I was losing, or would I behave stoically like I knew I should? Would the number ten forever be a symbol of loss for me, or would the new life that I moving towards slowly but steadily with each passing day make up for what I was leaving behind? I couldn’t tell, and every second that ticked by on the clock simply made breathing that much harder. The watch face didn’t lie—it was impassive and clinical.

What the hell was I going to say to her, anyway?

She insisted that she was coming; I could only imagine that when the tenth came she would be the one consoling and coddling me, when it should be the other way around.

She’d kiss me, and then slap me upside the head and tell me to snap out of it—and maybe that would be the only thing that could stir from the funk I had settled myself into.

Ten seconds. Son of a bitch.
October tenth. That was the last day, the end of everything. And it was coming much too quickly for my liking.
