Sleepless

After discovering that her lover was really someone else's, she cried salty tears. She couldn't scream, only heavy sighs escaped her mouth. Alexa went to her medicine cabinet to get her sleep aids. She angrily opened the top and took two pills out. She went to the kitchen and poured out a glass of vodka and orange juice to chase the pills. One hour passed and Alexa didn't fall into the sleep she so desperately wanted. She was simply numb.
