Twisted - A Paisleywood Story

what now?

A month passed by, i haven't told anyone yet. Not even Mama. The past month have gone by really slow. I feel sick, although i'm not. I refuse to talk to anyone. I rescheduled all my appointments 'til next month. I couldn't go to work like this. i'm a complete mess. My life is miserable.  I haven't heard anything about Brad yet, maybe he totally forgot everything about me. I know, I don't have the right to complain since I was the one who broke everything between us but I just miss him like crazy.

Should I call him? But what for, tell him how much I miss him, how miserable I am without him, how i've been a mess and that life would be much better if we just get back together and he should divorce Kim? nah. i'm not that desperate.

Maybe i should just text him but what do i tell him?

Hey Brad, it's me Carrie... your ex-girlfriend.  Just wanna say hi.

I thought to myself. nah. I suck at this.

Just when I was about to type a new message, the door bell rang. I reached for the door and there is Miranda standing.

"Carrie!" she exclaimed hugging me. "girl, how have you been? I haven't seen you in ages! what's up?"

"Ran! glad to see you! Not much, just here in the house, laying around, enjoying life with Ace. what about you?" i asked trying to get the topic off me. I don't want to bring up Brad. I would just end up crying which was all I did the past month

"i'm fine. Where's Brad?" and there she goes asking about Brad.

"He doesn't live here, Ran, so probably in his house. anyway, what brought you here?" i answered nonchalantly as if nothing happened between me and Brad.

"well, I'm here because i want to hear news from You and Brad, so what's the progress between you two? Is he gonna divorce Kim, are y'all gonna get married after? How many kids do you want? What--"

"You know what Ran, let's not talk about that. How are you and Blake? Any kids in the near future?"

"well, Blake and I are extremely fine and kids, err, i don't think so, maybe a few more years.   How about you and Brad?"

"Glad to hear! Are you hungry? wanna go out for dinner? Or do you want me to cook instead?" I asked going to the kitchen to look for something to cook.

"wait wait wait wait wait, I see what you're trying to do here.. Why do you refuse talking about you and Brad? are you fighting right now or?"

"well, i'm out of stock of everything, guess we have a girls night out!" I say excitedly completely ignoring her questions.

"Seriously, Carrie Marie, will you answer my questions first or would you want me to go now?"

"fine. Brad and I are no longer together." I said trying so hard not to cry while uttering those words.

"oh" Miranda just sat there stunned i'd say.

"Now I have to go get dressed, we'll go out.. MY TREAT " i say as I ran toward the stairs to my room.

I opened my closet and looked for something to wear.  I curled my hair, put some make up on and slid into the orange floral dress and a strappy heels. I grabbed my purse and went downstairs.

"Girl, are we going to a club or what?" Miranda says laughing.

"well, you must be right." I winked. "I need to get my mind off Brad, you know have fun for a night. it's been so long since I last went to a club."

"One dirty Martini for me please" i asked the bartender.
