Waiting for Superman ~ Part 3 (3rd & Final Book of Hero or Hellian Trilogy)

"YOU WERE MARRIED!?!" Tink shouts after I tell her everything up to when Jolin walked out of my life.

I smile a shy girlish smile and nod. Yes I screwed up but I am still proud to have been married to Jolin.

Tink's expression is pure shock and disbelief as she stares at me with her mouth hanging open for almost five minutes before she spoke again.

"Good hell Jewels, cheers." And we clink our wine glasses and giggle for a few minutes before she asks, "So what now? What are you plans? We both know you can't stay in this hell hole forever."

I shrug because really I don't have much of a clue what to do. Yes I was on my own for a couple years but I wasn't really out there.

Another moment of silence before she said, "Lets make a plan to get out of here. Tonight lets set up a deadline on when we are going to leave."

"I like the idea but where would we go?"

"Well how I see it, we have all night. I can't imagine a paralegal working tomorrow and neither do I but first things first. When should we leave?"

I look around for a few minutes before saying, "My lease is up in six months?"

Tink pulled out her phone and went through and said, "Yep. Six months will work out great."

I raise my eyes surprised at how easy that was and have to chuckle because nothing was ever easy with Jolin but he was worth fighting for.

"So where are we going?" I ask.

Tink studies me for a moment before saying, "Lets plan on going west."

This made me smile a bit as I thought about it before replying, "Westward ho!"
