Jade was squeezing her stress ball with little effort. It just hurt her hand really. She could never make her fist wrap around it completely. It was so thick and painful.

"Why do I even use it then?" She tossed it across Jesy's room. It was Saturday, one of the last days in October. "Soon it'll be December. The year flies by so quickly." She grabbed her phone from her pocket. "Let's see what messages Jade has been receiving."

Prince: You alright? I just felt like checking up on you.

Jade smiled. Why was he so sweet? People like Princeton were hard to come by.

Me: I'm alright. What about you? Did you tell your Mam that you'd be dropping out of college?

Prince: Yeah I did. I'm actually at home. She didn't seem upset. She knows that I have a way of making money. *winkey face emoji*

Me: She knows about our CIA job?! *surprised face emoji*

Prince: No she doesn't. lol. I just told her that I got a job as a secretary at the local motel. *winkey face emoji*

Me: motel?

Prince: lol. Everyone thinks that the CIA base is a motel Jade.

Me: Ohhhh is that their cover up? Lol. I don't know why that's so funny to me. What if someone came by to like book a room?

Prince: *thinky face emoji* It doesn't happen. People still go to motels in this day and age?

Me: *tons of laughing face emojies*

Prince: lol That wasn't funny but I'm laughing.

Prince: What are you up to? Are you with Jesy?

Me: Why would I be? She lives in Malibu with her 'lover'.

Prince: Oooo why the quotation marks tho? You upset about something?

Me: *sad face emoji* I didn't tell her but I kind of am. Do you remember when she cheated?

Prince: I think we all remember and agreed that it wasn't exactly her fault.

Me: It kind of was. No one threatened her life and told her to do the girl's sister.

Prince: You're right but Leigh's sister is kind of a professional person mess upper. If you know what I mean.

Me: And Jesy isn't? Jesy should have known all of her tricks.

Prince: Can't help but feel as if you two had a fight or something. Did I miss something? Are you and her okay?

Me: *sighing face emoji* we didn't have a fight. I can't fight with her. Not after the last time I left her and she ended up relapsing. I'm pretty livid about the cheating thing but I can't express to her how mad I am. It sucks. I'm just here being mad alone and occasionally grumbling to meself.

Prince: I don't want to be disrespectful but that actually sounds freaking adorable.

Me: *frowning face emoji* None of yous take me seriously.

Me: It's okay though I guess. I don't want to be mad at her.

Prince: If you are then be mad. She actually did do something really disrespectful to you. I mean, you loved Leigh from the start, she stole her and now she cheats on her? What the hell? Now that I spell it out it sounds pretty messed up. I mean yeah, people make mistakes but the girl's sister? That's just cold. Leigh's clearly got a thing with her sisters. We're lucky she isn't crying all over the place. Is she? She hides her problems well.
