Amanda’s POV

I brought out my laptop and started typing my resignation letter so I could submit it by tomorrow.

I printed it out and enveloped it, waiting for tomorrow to come but I cried again because I always missed him, when can I forget him fully? How will I be able to heal from this heartbreak?

The next morning came, I got all dressed up and took the available cab to work.

Immediately I got there, many wondered why I hadn’t been showing up to work without an excuse.

“Hey Amanda, the boss is really angry, why haven’t you been coming to work?”

“You mean the main annoying boss is here?” I asked and she nodded.

“Then it’s perfect.”

“What do you mean perfect, just come up with an excuse that you got sick, that should be able to do the trick for you and your job will be saved.” I know she cares for me that’s why she is giving me various options so I don’t end up being jobless but I already know one thing for sure, I will pick up the broken pieces again.

Something tells me they’re going to hurt her. I really don’t want anything to harm my mother-in-law.”Romeo threw up his hands. “Oh, sweet Lord, help my friend, for he is crazy and out of his damn mind!
