You are the best!!

Don't let anybody tell you otherwise, I'll fight anyone who does.

Sidenote: we used to have nunchucks at home when I was a kid and I tried to flex with them. Long story short I almost took my nose off and hit my forehead so had I felt it in my ears.

Back to the book.

Sadlyeen waddled into the kitchen to find Jenny singing along to classical music, the woman had a voice on her.

“How are you not hung over?”

“Good afternoon to you daughter, sleep well?

“More like blacked out but yeah.”

“Good and I have been hosting regular parties which involve alcohol for years. It called alcohol resilience darling. Sit down I’ll whip up something for the hangover and something to eat.”

“Thanks.”

As she sat down Jenny put her hand to her goddaughter’s cheek fondly then went on with making the food.
Brad walked in a while later and hugged her.

“Late morning huh.” He asked smiling. She smiled back.
“I’m going into town in twenty I’ll drop you off so we can catch up on the way, alright.”
“I’d like that.”

Well fed and rested she stood in front of her apartment door one and a half hour later.

Everything came rushing back as she opened it and stepped in. The more she moved towards her bedroom the more her heart clenched.

She walked in and sat on the bed. Glancing around she saw the neatly folded t-shirts and clothes with respective hangars next to her bed. Needing something to distract her from the crushing despair she decided to put them into her closet.

Remaining with the t-shirts Sadlyeen picked them up one by one stacking them into a drawer until she came across Michael’s t-shirt.

She'd worn it after the drunken club episode when she woke up in his house.

She sniffed it but it smelled of detergent despite which she could smell him, his scent was coded into her brain.

She sat on the floor tears already building up. She cried her heart out and started hyperventilating.

In the process of trying to breath she remembered Jenny’s words and started to get angry.

It slowly grew into a calm rage that was directed solely at one person. The bastard, he thought he knew everything and he had the answers.

Screw that, she became even more mad. The most pissed off person on the damn planet.

She stood shaking with rage dumped the t-shirt and headed to the living room.

Phone and keys in hand she left.

As she exited her building she called Jenny who picked on the first ring.

“You okay Sade?” the worry in her voice, she loved the woman. She realized how much then.
“Yes I’m okay. I just wanted to say, thank you… mom.” She said emotional.

Jenny gasped audibly and sniffed loudly.

“I love you honey, it’s my job.”

They both understood how big of a deal this was, especially for Jenny. She'd only waited eleven years for Sadlyeen to call her mom not that there'd been pressure or hope but it was a great surprise.
