I did have some lunch too. But we could never get the same lunch hours. I came back about 1:00 or so with a special gift for her. But little did I kno..., that I'd be getting a visitor at work. Especially when I was alone at work. It was Judy. I saw her walking towards the door and I quickly put the gift away in my pocket."Hey sweetheart, how you doing?" Judy asked as she kissed me."I'm good, what are you doing here?" I asked."What, I can't come visit my boyfriend at work?" Judy asked."No I. Are you giving up on him?”Jenna was silent for a long time, before answering. “I’m so confused. I do love Rick, but I can’t help thinking that this is just another of his temporary remissions. He does it all the time. First he’s a complete asshole, gets abusive. Then he sweet-talks me into believing that he won’t do it again. Then he goes out and gets drunk again. It’s been happening just like clockwork lately. I know that if I keep listening to him, I’ll turn to jelly and give in. I know he. After the game, Parker looked at me a few times, opened his mouth a few more, but nothing came out. Then I rode home with you guys." So what are you going to do?" Tami asked."I'm going to have a nice relaxing Saturday with my best friends. Then I'm going to pump them for information." Information?" I asked innocently, though I knew exactly what she wanted."Yeah, it seems I'm not allowed to have plans for Thursday night, and I want to know why." Tam, you know anything about a Thursday. To know the truth. ‘Because I’m your friend.’ The dejection that slapped me over the face couldn’t be hidden, my whole posture slumped. ‘Friends talk to each other.’ I threw the towel I was still holding into the corner and left, wanting nothing more that to curl into a ball and wail my misery to the world. I did curl up on my bed. Lying on the side was the only position where I wasn’t painfully reminded of this night’s activities anyway. I just cried silently, though. Everything was quiet for.
