(Marjorie's pov)

"Don't go!" I beg him.
"I have to. I'll be back before you know it. It's only a couple days." he reassures me.
"I know, but I don't want to sleep without you." I admit, looking down ashamed. He lifts my chin up, and places a kiss on my lips.
"You can do it baby. I'll be back as quick as I can, and it will never feel like I left." he comforts, placing another kiss on my lips. I wrap my arm around his neck, not letting him pull away, savouring every last moment. He finally manages to wrangle himself put of my grasp.
"I can't miss the flight. I love you baby, I'll be back soon." He yells as he runs off, leaving me standing alone in the airport, tears streaming down my face.

I slowly walk out, climbing in my car, and starting my drive to work.
Unfortunately I still have to go in, but I snagged the late shift, so I could drop Reece off. It's only me and Autumn in the office today, but that means I have to walk in to just Autumn.
Great.
I turn on my music, and the first song that comes on is 'I Wanna be yours' by Arctic Monkeys. I turn it off, opting for comfortable silence instead.

I pull into the nursery car park, taking a deep breath. I don't know if I can deal with this today. I miss Reece so much. I shake my head, taking one last deep breath before climbing out my car, taking a slow walk to the doors.
I make my way inside, dragging my feet to the office door, before taking a deep breath and walking in.
Thankfully Autumn doesn't raise her head, instead she is hyper focused on something she is doing.
I sit down at my desk, singing into my computer and checking my emails.
I find one, one particular one that stands out from the rest.
I open it.

It reads:
'Marjorie,
I hear Reece is away for a few days, meaning we could always get together and have a drink, maybe go back to mine? Give it some thought, I am so much better than him, I have more money, and status. Why you went for him over me I'll never know, but now's your time to rethink it. Email me back,
With love,
Rog x'

I have to stop myself from physically throwing up, as I pull out my phone, snapping a quick picture. I hesitate to send it to Reece, knowing he can't reply for a few hours as he is on the plane, but I do anyway, so he can see it as soon as he lands.
Autumn looks up and clearly takes notice of my immediate shift.
"Marjorie?" she questions, fully turning her attention to me.
"Hmm?" I hum, not able to look her in the eyes.
"What's wrong?" She asks.
"Nothing." I say, trying to ignore her. I'm getting really frustrated now, and I don't know why, and I don't want to fly off the handle.
"Talk to me Marjorie."
"Leave me alone Autumn." I say through gritted teeth, hoping she will get the gist.
"Please, what's wro-" she starts but I can't take it, and I interrupt her.
"AUTUMN! LEAVE ME ALONE! WHY CAN'T YOU JUST MIND YOUR DAMN BUSINESS! HONESTLY, YOU ARE SO ANNOYING!" I scream at her, standing up and slamming my hands on my desk.
"What the fuck Marjorie? Why are you screaming at me? I've done nothing but care for you, even when you're a pain in my ass! Fuck you!" she yells back, although not nearly as loud as me.
"FUCK YOU BACK AUTUMN!" I scream at her, and she stands, making her way in front of me.
"Fuck you!" she yells in my face, bringing a hand up and all I feel next is a sharp sting.
My hand rises to my face, rubbing over my cheek. I look up to Autumn, who is stood there in shock. My eyes fill with tears as I gather my few items.
"Marj-"
"No Autumn. Just, no." I say, rushing out the office and climbing into my car.

I drive as fast as I can, however every traffic light seems to be red. Just what I need.
Eventually, I'm pulling up in the driveway. I unlock the door, before shutting it behind me, angrily taking my shoes off.
I throw my things down by the door, rushing upstairs to change.
I get into a pair of Reece's joggers, and one of his hoodies, I really need his comfort right now.
I head back downstairs, sitting down on the sofa, curling up into a ball as the tears, that threatened to fall earlier, finally fall. And I let them.
