We jumped on the suitcase to shut it and then we feel apart.
The clothes leaped out, and the shirts and the scarves hugged on a checkered mattress on my queen sized bed. We sat on either side looking around, all glum. The shoes tapped around on the floor below and tried to inch back into their shelves, but we brought them back in one swift movement. When I tried to close in the toothpaste and soap, the suitcase shut its mouth to drive me away.
The room smelled of raspberries from the perfume that we dropped and spilled, while our hands trembled in the slightest.
In the night, we sat on the suitcase one last time, subdued and quiet. The suitcase let out a whimper of resignation.
The room would miss a small suitcase and a much larger part of me.
