all too well

Chapter 3

I finally wake up and I look at my phone to see its 12pm. I hate waking up early for school so when I have an off day, I sleep as long as my body will allow. I'm sure Iz will be messaging me soon to meet up, so I get up and start getting ready. After showering, I make some coffee and watch tv with the cats, Elliot & Derek.

Isabella messaged me about an hour ago to meet around 4pm. I really want to just lay around but its time to go find out what dickhead Cole did.

As I arrive, I see my sister sitting outside the salon with two iced coffees looking upset. I have a feeling whatever Cole did, it's not good. I grab my bag and phone after parking and walk over to Iz.
"Hey sis! Thank you for the coffee. Is everything okay? You seem a little.. down."
"I'm fine, we can talk about it later. Let's just get this mani/pedi and relax."
We head inside and sit in the massage chairs waiting for the esthetician to come.
While getting our toes done, my sister looks at me and says Cole cheated. Am I shocked? No, he's an asshole. I do feel bad for Isabella though. "How did you find out? Are you breaking up with him?"
"I don't know, Tatiana! I just found out. I don't even know what to think right now." She said visibly upset.
"I'm sorry. You know I'll support you no matter what you choose. I do think that you deserve better than him."
"I know, T, I just don't know what to do. We've been together for so long. I looked through his shit, he was being sketchy with his social media accounts. I looked and then immediately regretted it. I don't know how he could do this to me." She started to cry. Now I really feel bad.
I grabbed her hand. "You are the smartest person I know. You will figure out what's best for you. Maybe you should take a break. Tell him to go stay with a friend while you think about next course of action. I love you very much."
"I love you too sis." She wiped the tears off her face.
Cole is the worst of the worst. Cole grew up with money so he thinks he can treat everyone like shit. Isabella and I also grew up with money but we don't act like entitled, spoiled brats like him. He better hope I don't see him anytime soon cause he won't like what I I have to say.
We continue to talk about Cole, work, and plans for the holidays that are coming up. It's the end of October and the next two months get so wild with Thanksgiving, fall break, & my birthday.

After way too many hours at the nail salon, I finally made it home. I decide to just order some sushi and work on some school work.
My sushi arrives and I start to get comfortable on the couch since I finished up a paper I had to do while I waited. as I sit down, I get a text message.

Jack: I just heard a Mumford & Sons song on the radio and it made me think of how cute you looked with that shirt on.

He thought I looked cute. I start to blush and immediately reply.

Tati: I love that you thought of me. I'm excited for this weekend. :)

Jack: As am I. What are you doing?

Tati: Just got some sushi, now getting ready to watch a movie.

We txt back and forth for awhile before he says he has dinner
