Writing Prompt #12

I returned home from a horrible day at work, my boss was on my case about every little thing I did. The only thing that got me through the day was thinking about going home, kicking back and relaxing on my favorite recliner and forget about the work day. When I walked in the door I saw a note on the table. As I started to read it my heart dropped. This is what was written on it. Dear Derek, I'm sorry but our time together is over. I have had many fun times with you over the years and I thank you for that. We have been through a lot together, remember that one time when your dog died and you needed a shoulder to cry on? I was there for you, as I always have been. We used to do everything with each other; I will never forget all the important basketball and football games we've watched. Those were the most fun times I have ever had. Super bowl Sunday usually got out of control but there's always a price to pay if you want to have fun. Lately you haven't been paying much attention to me. I don't know if its something I have done wrong but I feel like your excluding me from your life. You are constantly working or going out every night with your friends, I just don't know what to do anymore. Jealousy go the best of me last week so I followed you when you said you were "going to Billy's house" I seen you go into that furniture store and sit on the newest recliner there.That hurt! I have already found a new place to live so you don't need to worry about that. Goodbyes are always bitter sweet but maybe we will see each other again sometime. Goodbye Derek, have a nice life. Love, your favorite recliner.
