It’s two days since bad boy Jamie disappeared. His messages stopped, and he didn’t come around as promised. I was angry, unfriended him on social media, and deleted every trace.

I cannot trust a person who hurt me because I know he will do it again.

Last night, Jamie turned up in a busy bar, and I ignored him. But he kept appearing in the crowd and glancing across.

He messaged me. ‘Sorry I was in a police cell.’

I ignored it, and this meant he had to come over and speak. He asked me if I was turning my back on him. I said yes.

And he got drunker, more desperate, and more apologetic, and this is when he is dangerous, and might end up in a police cell again.

And now, the emotional drama.

‘I understand that you’re angry with me. All I can do is apologise.’
