As soon as I was at the front of the line, I quickly grabbed the ingredients for dinner and headed to my son's school to pick him up. As soon as I picked him up from school, we headed home.

I'll be right over” I ended the call and poured myself a drink. It was time to celebrate, after all. A knock at the door brought me back to reality.

The same company my ex-husband works for?”“Yes, but at a different branch. At first when you told me about how he treated you. I doubt it, because he treats his colleagues with so much love.
