Rachel Jones has her world turned upside down when she gets the news that she can't conceive naturally. Her husband, Tanner Knight, tries to help her but is lost in his own desire for his future.
She ends up alone and broken, loosing everything she...
Its been a week since all of the drama went down, Damon has texted me a few times but I never responded. His explanation to the whole Veronica thing is that she has been obsessed with him for years so he hooks up with her every once in a while because he knows she'll say yes. He said she knows all of his workers cause she's been around for years. According to him he hasn't had a serious girlfriend in years and he said he would be willing to explain why, but I don't need to be focussing on that right now
I've managed to pack most of my stuff and found a small apartment that I can move in to this weekend, Alisha has been staying with me to help me get everything packed up. Im so lucky to have her.
Tanner hasn't come around since last week either, which is good for me because I can hardly think about him without getting a sick feeling in my stomach..now you can imagine how I feel when I see him. He's kept his distance but he also sent me a few texts stating the same as prior, that Damon is not what I think he is blah blah blah..To be completely honest I don't want either of them around right now.
Drew finally showed up at work and apologized for the way he acted, he did tell me that he does have feelings for me but will respectfully not do anything that I am not okay with. Luckily he hasn't made things awkward between us so we have kept things civil and are back to acting the way we used to around each other. He's actually helping me and Alisha get my things out of here.
Im taking most of the stuff, the bed frame but without the mattress because Tanner admitted to me that he had his mistress around here at times, ever since then I have been sleeping on the couch convincing myself that they haven't done anything on it. Im also taking a dresser, two of the chairs with ottomans in the living room, the round dinner table in the kitchen and a few of other things like carpets and decorative items.
The apartment I'm getting is super cute, it has one bedroom and one bath since thats all that I need. The kitchen has just been upgraded so its pretty modern and it has wood flooring. I lucked out and got it from a private owner so its not a crazy amount of money I'll be paying per month.
Its finally Thursday and I can almost taste the weekend, although moving is dreadful I'm excited to get out of this house and start becoming more independent.
I finished my morning routine and since most of my clothes was already packed, I had my outfit for today, tomorrow and Saturday ready to go.
Today's outfit is a short sleeve form fitting top tucked into black and white checkered pants with cute black heels. I threw my natural hair up in a high pony and kept my makeup simple.

I figured this is cute and professional enough without being too much for me to have out while everything else gets packed.
"All ready to go?" Alisha poured coffee into my travel mug for me, she knows exactly how I drink my coffee
"Yes I am" I smiled at her as I took the coffee out of her hand "I don't need a man when I have you" I made a kissy face in her direction
"you're right, men have a way of making me want to be a lesbian" I couldn't help but laugh at the fact that her statement is true "have a good day at work Rach"
"you too Leesha"
The day is finally coming to an end, we've been pretty busy all of today. I tend to like busier days because the time seems to fly by, although lately my days have felt endless. It just feels like an endless amount of pain and heartache, but this happens to everyone right? At some point everyone's life seems like a soap opera and then it regulates within time, I'm just waiting for mine to regulate
Its 4:50 and we close the doors at 5 so I figured I might as well go through my register and make sure all of the money is put in to bags for the Garda that should be here any minute now.
"Hey Drew, I'm going to empty out my register now and when we close you can do yours.." I spoke while I walked to the back to get a money bag "can you just keep an eye out for customers these last few minutes?" I detached my register from the drawer and made my way to the back assuming that Drew would be okay with it
"you got it dude" he gave me a thumbs up with a silly smile making me snicker a bit
I went to the back to put the money through the counting machine, making sure it all added up with the ticket in my account for the transactions of the day. I always count the checks last, I feel like its easier that way
"Is Rachel here?" I paused in the middle of counting, loosing the number I was on
"I don't think you should be here man" I heard Drew reply
For a few seconds I didn't move a muscle, you know how you freeze up when you're trying to listen closely to something? That's what I'm doing right now. Somehow in my head, if I move even a finger I wont be able to hear what is being said, even though I am only a few feet behind of our front counter.
"Well it's a good thing that I don't care what you think" I could feel the tension from where I'm standing "now don't make me have to knock you out again"
oh great
"woah what the fuck man!?" Drew's tone sounded terrified
I walked around the corner to see Drew with his hands up in the air and a gun in his face
