KEN'S POV (same situation as in 8 - 1)

I parked my car in the school's parking lot.
I took my bag from the passenger's seat and I got out of the car and left locked it behind me.

I raised my hand to look at the watch that rested there and I noticed that I would be late if I didn't go in that moment, so I ran and went up the stairs very quickly.

As I went up the stairs, I heard some noises that I thought were the students but when I reached the floor where the teacher's lounge was, the noise, no the voices were becoming clearer and I could definitely tell that someone is shouting.

I turned around the corner to see a sight that I never thought that I'd ever see in my life and that was Brittney, my wife, talking to Julia, my ex and now coworker.

As I neared the scene in front of me I noticed that Brittney was shouting at Julia and Julia looked very calm.

That's why I like her, she always has the bigger mind while fighting.

As I shook my head at my thoughts, I saw that Brittney had spotted me so I began to walk towards them.

"Could you please explain this to me, Ken?! Why is this bitch here?! And more importantly, why haven't you told me that she is here?!", she shouted at me as I got closer to them.

I looked around us and saw that a lot of students were stopping and looking at the scene in front of them.

I grabbed Brittney's arm to get her inside the room. I looked behind me for a second and I saw that Julia came in too.

Brittney pulled her arm out of my grip and looked at me, "Brittney, can we please talk about this later. It's is not the right time and place", I said.

"No, Ken! I know why you don't want us to talk right now, it's because you want to talk to her first! Because she is your first for everything!", Brittney said.

I sighed and held her hands with mine,"Brittney, what are you talking about, darling, Julia is not as important to me as you are, she is nothing to me and of course you are my first and only choice not her"

I kept my eyes on Brittney as I heard the door open and slam shut from behind.

Fuck, why did I say that?

"But you kept this away from me! You didn't tell me about her workin-", she interrupted herself as she gasped, "You wanted to work here because you knew that she'd be here, right?! You wanted to fucking see her again! Why?! Am I not good enough?!", she started to cry.

Fuck, what the fuck should I do now?

"Um- no, Brittney, fuck", I struggled to make an understandable sentence. Brittney looked at me wanting to hear an explanation from me. "I-I think it's better that we take a break from each other, Brittney", I told her what I thought honestly.

She looked at me, shocked, "What?! Are you breaking up with me?! For her?!"

"What? No! I meant a small break until we both calm down, so, we can talk normally", I said quickly.

"You know what? I am done with you! I am leaving! You fucking bitch!", she screamed at my face before slapping my face.

She raised her middle finger at me then she left the room.

Fuck, what have I done?

---------------------------

I had to work today more than usual, so, I ended up finishing on about seven p.m.

I intentionally agreed to help around later to avoid being spotted by anyone I knew. I didn't want to see how Julia was because I knew that she'd be a mess and I won't be able to do anything.

As for Brittney, I am glad that she slapped me and left me with a red, bruised cheek. It made me realize how much I disliked her and didn't want and that I didn't care about her.

I walked towards my car hoping that Brittney wasn't sitting in there waiting for me.

I got there and, thank god, she wasn't there but I quickly got in the driver's seat in case she was waiting for me nearby.

I drove away from the goddamn school that started all of this mess.
