I’m back.
I twist the single key in my hand and think back to the time when it
used to mean home.
With my parents gone, now it’s only a shell of a house I’ll be passing
over to a new family destined to relive my fate when they find there’s no
growth in this small sleepy Vermont town.

I’m not sure how I feel about riding into the place I grew up in after
nearly a decade gone. I had a good full day and a half ride up here from
New York City to think about what I left behind.
I loved every minute of cruising the back roads of the Northeast far
away from my Boston company. Riding through the reds and golds of the
trees and breathing the crisp autumn air is just what I needed to clear my
head of all I’ve lost this year. First, the family I thought I would have and
then my dad.
Chilled wind snakes under my jacket. Over the scent of fresh pumpkin
and the pine smell of rain, maybe even snow, lingers.
Looking around I honestly half expected it to be a ghost town by now. A
place I would ride through, reminisce of in the three point five seconds it
would take to cross both county lines and then be done. With its single
grocery store it is nearly too small for the one flickering stop light swinging
overhead.
Then again, I never imagined I’d be single on what was supposed to be
my honeymoon, let alone relieved about it. Proof you should never assume
shit in life because it can’t wait to prove you wrong at every bend. Trust me.
My life is proof of it. After my ex confessed to faking her pregnancy, things
between us ended abruptly, killing every plan of building my first crib and
diaper shopping. Not many people label me as a homebody, but I am for the
most part.
After three tours overseas, I looked forward to building something. A
family.
That was six months ago and I can’t claim to be broken up about my ex,
but I feel a pang of hurt dead center in the chest about what could have
been. I felt proposing to the woman who I thought carried my baby was the
right thing to do. As it turns out, the cute little gold digger wanted my last
name and the bank account that goes with it by any means necessary. Lies
included.
