"You should celebrate. We should celebrate," her best friend, Bonnie, said, all cheery and upbeat. "Celebrate? You've got to be joking." "Hey. Getting divorced isn't the end of the world. It's...it's a new beginning. It's a different door opening when the old one closed. It's..." "Bonnie? Can you please give it a rest?" "Sorry. I'm just trying to cheer y...
August of 2015 "Jake? Hi. Sorry to call you at work," she told him. "Hold on. I can't hear you. Let me get away from the excavator. Gimme just a sec, okay?" he hollered even though she could hear him just fine. He walked about 50 feet away from the job site then tried again. "Leanne? You still there?" "Yes. I'm still here," she said. "What's going on?...

I turn off the car and...

Chapter 1 "So this is how my vacation actually went." "What?" "I didn't say anything." Jen said sharply, barely sparing me a glance from her phone. "I could've sworn...never mind." I said, glancing around the busy bar. No one was close enough for me to have overheard that, so where did it come from? "God...are you really that thickheaded?" I heard...
Friday afternoon, Sept 22, 2028 It was déjà vu all over again, waiting for my wife to meet her fuck-buddy. At least this time I had some tasks, instead of wandering aimlessly like last time. I picked up Kevin from day-care, then waited until three o'clock to pick Katie up at school, then drove them to Ontario where we'd planned to let them stay the weekend...
Jennifer started working as a medical assistant in our medical office about three months after my divorced finalized. At first, I didn't really notice her. I was part of a large medical group and turnover in the entry-level staff seemed to be the rule.
