The Loyalty Meter Never Lies

I have always been able to see the loyalty score hovering above every person’s head.

Whenever that number drops below sixty percent, it means they are going to leave.

The day my father walked out on us for another woman, the number over his head plummeted from sixty-nine percent to twenty-three percent in a single afternoon.

The night my older sister packed her duffel bag and ran away from home, hers fell straight to seven percent.

Because of this, throughout every relationship in my twenties, I was always able to see the end coming.
