"FINALLY!!" I got the dance move that I have been working on for a few weeks now and I finally mastered it. Yes, I'm a dancer. A professional dancer now and I work for Elite Dance Company. A very well known and prestigious dance company in Attaway, which is next to my hometown Millwood. I have been trying to dance my problems out which is working, but I have a massive headache. Probably because you cried yourself to sleep and drank a whole bottle of wine all by yourself, my subconscion adds. My parents are working all day and my mom has to be at work overnight and so does my dad, so...the house is all mine...I could do whatever I want.

Two hours later...

"Thanks guys for coming...I had lots of fun today. Things have been rough these days and-" "No problem Emery...you gotta stop with this Herald shit because if you carry on, you only gonna beat yourself up and become a depressed lonely person. I hate what Herald did to you, it really upsets me but listen, you don't need a man do dictate your future, you were raised to be a strong woman and you can't let Herald come in between that," "Ava is right Ems, Herald is a dick...he seriously is but you can't keep blaming yourself for what happened. We honestly think that you are an AMAZING person in and out and he is missing out on this crazy soul," Mbali says while giving my cheeks a light squeeze. Me, Ava and Mbali have known each other since we were seven and we have been inseparable since then. We grew up together in the same neighbourhood and went to the same schools. They're my best friends and they're like ny sisters. "Do you think he was dating that chick while you guys were still together ?" asked Ava. "I don't know guys...I mean like...I don't think he would do that," I say, defending my ex-husband. "Well...you're always saying that "Herald wouldn't do that" but look where that led you. Remember the time he took your jewellery without your permission and all of a sudden "a drunk man stole it from him"?" said Mbali. "Oh and remember the time you planned a special dinner for him and he didn't show until the next morning...he smelt like he had been tossed in a damn perfume bottle," Ava adds while scrunching up her nose. "And what did you say when we warned you?" Ava says with a smirk on her face. "Herald wouldn't do that," they say in unison. We all cracked up with laughter. After the laughing died down...I thought to myself-Herald wouldn't do that,,,would he?
