Gabbie POV

                        I haven't been able to work properly...it's break time now and i don't know what to do...i called adie at least twenty times and no answer

?: you alright there?

G: hm? oh hey bill...y-yeah i'm...i'm fine

                       One of my associates pulls up a chair. He's a nice dude one of the workers round here i can tolerate 

B: yanno...i've been married to my wife for thirty-one year...and have two daughters an rambunctious ten-year-old and a twenty-one year old down in flordia...what i'm saying is i can tell when a woman's upset...we're therapists here...wanna talk it out

G: *sips coffee*...i...*sigh* i...i made my partner beyond angry last night

B: ah adie how is she

G: not good...i...*starts crying* fuck

                   I put my head to my hands on the table

G: ...i kept something very important from her all day and then...i...i got drunk and forgot bout it...so then she learned it while i w-was gonna...w-while we was...were...

B: ah...so ya fucked up

G: gee thanks

B: well whatever this thing was...must've been life-changing to her...while i can't say i've dealt with a partner quite as...an interesting case...as yours...i can tell you...let her cool down...if someone like her is mad enough at you...you might wanna stay clear from her...and when and ONLY when the time is right...she might forgive you...you are partners after all she'll come around...try doing the lil things even if she don't notice. Make er some coffee, wash her clothes maybe get her some flowers...and just hope to God she notices at some point
