beauty I wanted to break every little thing of hers, How dare she move into my home and sleep in my bed without second thought about it. I am not sure I could sleep in another woman’s bed in good conscience. With great restraint, I let her things be
I went to the kitchen and poured myself a glass of Chardonnay while I waited for the movers to arrive. I also packed up the remaining bottles of wine. Carter was not a wine drinker and I would be damned if I was going to leave it for Rosa. She had already taken possession of enough of my things
When the movers arrived, I showed them everything that needed moved and I sat in the kitchen until they were finished. It did not take them very long at all until they had the truck loaded and ready to go, I took one last look around, reached into my purse and set a large envelope with my divorce papers in it on the counter. I had stopped by my lawyer’s office on the way here because he had called and said that the papers were ready. I wrote a note on the envelope.

Carter, sadly it is too late for us. Please sign these as soon as possible. I feel that it is a fair settlement and you should have no objections

My emotions were all
Lover the place. I was sad that my marriage had ended, but this was a good day as well. This was a step forward; I was moving
I led the movers to Angelique’s house and they unloaded everything into her garage. Fortunately, it only took up half of her garage and she could still park her car on the other side. She told me to take as long as I needed that she was enjoying not being alone for a change, but if things kept moving quickly with her and Brandon, I would need to find my own place soon
Shortly after I returned to Angelique’s, Kyle sent me a text message.

Yes, I just finished and I’m back at Angelique’s.

It was five now, so I had a few hours to unwind. It had been a long emotional, stress–filled day. A long hot bath was just what the doctor ordered. 1 made my way up the stairs and into my room. I quickly shed all my clothing and walked to the bath to turn on the water. The hotter, the better. I took some purple bath salts that smelled of lavender and sprinkled them in the water. I then lit a few candles and slid into the water that was summoning me. The water was so warm, it nearly took my breath away. It only took a few minutes though for me to completely relax into it.
I sat in there until the bath water was no longer warm and I was wrinkly from fingertips to toes. I carefully stood up and grabbed the white cotton towel that I had set out and wrapped it about my body. I walked to my bed and lay down. I just wanted to relax for a few minutes before I needed to get up and find something to wear. I closed my tired eyes.
I felt someone sit on the bed. “Hi Ang, home from work early?”
“It’s me. Angelique told me to come on up.” His deep voice startled me. Kyle was sitting there looking at me with worry.
“Oh no, what time is it?”
