The next day,
Veronica made her way to the kitchen, still wearing her panties and her tanktop she wore as her pajamas, while tying her long blonde locks into a ponytail she made her way to the refrigerator
"Granny panties really?" Veronica heard behind her, seeing Michael enjoying some coffee, and obviously noticing her 'outfit'
"I-I- You are supposed to be at the studio or the restaurant" Veronica gasped "And yeah they're comfortable" she referred to her 'granny panties'
"I'll go to the restaurant in a few minutes" Michael answered "And what will you do today?" He asked while checking her out at the same time before taking another sip of his coffee
"Obviously getting dressed after breakfast and hopefully booking an appointment with a real estate agent if I see a reasonably priced apartment or house" Veronica replied, choosing to ignore the fact he checked her out
"Am I really such a horrible roommate you want to move out faster?" Michael asked half joking half seriously
"No, you're a great roommate, boss and friend....but I can't stay here forever I mean you got your life I got mines" Veronica began "I mean what if you meet a girl you wanna take home and she sees me here, I mean that would be something to explain" she mentioned pouring her cornflakes in a bowl
"Don't worry about that, I don't take any of my dates home if there's no real connection, and deffently not after just one date" Michael answered "Oh and a one night stand, she gets to spend the rest of the night at the hotel with roomservice in the morning while I go home when she's asleep" he added
"Ok a little too much information there" Veronica mentioned while pouring some milk over her cornflakes
"If you decide to bring a guy home, let me know so I don't have to hear you guys" Michael replied
"Uh what makes you think I will bring a guy home to a house I do not own? Also not to mention I'll probably stay single for a while, my heart is still broken in a million pieces" Veronica mentioned "I don't think I'd ever fully heal from it, I mean I thought he would be my husband and father of my child or children one day but no he not only ruined my trust in men he also destroyed my plan" she continued "I planned my entire future with him, I even was in the early stages of creating a saving account for my child I'm not even was supposed to be pregant with till next year after the wedding, I made a list of the best schools in the state and as a back up plan I was already making a list of great private tutors to homeschool Junior or Fiona, if the child would be a boy he'd be Nigel Junior and if a girl Fiona, named after my mother" She sniffed
"Don't let such a fool like your ex take away your future, save all the information you got and when you meet the right person he will help you meet Junior,Fiona and their siblings" Michael told her
"Only if he won't be turned off by this big ugly scar on my side, I mean you saw it, it's ugly and-" Veronica began
"No it's not ugly, it means you are a strong woman, you survived something tragic, so yes it means you've a scar on your side, better a scar on your side than a 'Here rests Veronica' message on your tombstone, right?" Michael told her
"I-" Veronica sniffed and broke down crying, realizing once again she indeed could have died if the knife had cut deeper or into a major artery
"Sorry, I didn't mean to make you cry" Michael apologized and wrapped his arms around her to comfort her while she burried her face in his chest once he held her
