“Have you been eating good?” John sat there a moment and wiped his eyes “Uhhh I dunno” he answered. Reese put a plate of food in front of him he started eating “Take it easy I promise it won’t jump off the plate” she teased putting his hair in a ponytail then kissed his cheek. She sat down with him “Aren’t you going to eat?” he asked “Nah I’m not hungry” he nodded.
After
John ate Reese began cleaning his house “All rightie lets inspect your bedroom”
“Do we have to?” “Well you can just relax while I do it” she smiled
softly. She spent over two hours
cleaning just his bedroom “Johnny your room is filthy!” she was taking a lot of
bags of substances and flushing them. John
winced hearing them flush she came out “And that’s all of it!” “Did you have to
throw all that away? That cost me a
fortune” she sat next to him taking a break “Yes, I had to do it if I’m going
to live here with you and take care of you I need you to cut that out” “Cut? Out?
I dunno if I can” “Yes, you can you’re a lot stronger than you think you
are…I know you are” she pinched his cheek then went back to work.
Reese
Whitman had been John’s friend since he was 24. She had the picture perfect face that she had since she was
younger. With flowing brown hair and
almond blue eyes. She was younger than
John by four years. He met her through
one of his girlfriends at the time.
John wasn’t attracted to Reese as much as she was him but he did love
her like a friend.
Reese
opened John’s cabinets and fridge “Not much of a selection! Looks like I’m off to the grocery store will
you be all right until I get back?” she asked “Yeah I should be” “Good” she
hugged him tightly “You know I’d do anything for you Johnny” “Yeah I know
thanks” she kissed his cheek again and grabbed her purse.
John
called Chad to come over “So let me get this straight here if I’m correct
Stella leaves because of your dumbass then Reese steps in after hearing it and
moves in to take care of her ‘special’ friend Johnny Fru?” Chad pinched his
cheek like Reese does “Stop” John pushed his hand away “She cleaned out my
stash” “Ouch! She’s serious Johnny”
“Stop that!” “What? She’s so cute the
way she pinches your cheek and calls you her Johnny Fru it’s funny! She’s a typical ditz!” “Don’t call her
that! She’s smart she almost didn’t go
to college because of me but I’m glad she did” Chad sipped his beer “Is this
John being aware there are other people’s needs before his own?” “You’re asking
for it!” John threatened.
Reese
was scanning the isles then grabbed some crackers and snacks. One was too high she couldn’t reach “Here
let me…” it was Anthony he pulled it down “Thank you I just hate being oh so
short” she smiled “Anthony! How nice to
see you!” she threw her arms around him and hugged him tightly he dropped the snack
box into her basket “Oh and you brought Mike with you!” she kissed Anthony’s
cheek then threw her arms around Flea.
She kept kissing their cheeks “What a surprise! I didn’t expect to see you two here” “Yeah
what are you doing here?” Anthony asked “Shopping for Johnny I’m living with
him for a while” “Really?” “Yeah I want to take care of him he’s been so sad”
she frowned making impressions with her face.
Anthony and Flea just nodded “Well we really have to go” “Awwww well I
should too I suppose don’t want Johnny to think I ran off and left him” she
said hugging them once more.
Flea
and Anthony didn’t say anything until they saw Stella they burst into laughter
“She’s a cute little woman though” “Who is?” Stella asked “Reese Whitman”
“John’s friend?” Stella asked disdainfully “Yeah we just ran into her she still
calls him Johnny and still talks to everyone like they’re five” Anthony laughed
“She’s you only without a backbone” Flea told Stella “I met her she was too too
too too nice! She made me look like a
witch!” Stella said when they saw her again.
“Wow I just keep running into you two which is good I need Anthony’s
strong arms again” “No problem” Anthony said Reese pointed upward she tickled
his sides “Thanks sweetie” she said kissing his cheek. She then saw Stella “Hi Stella” she said
without hugging her “Hi Reese” she just ignored Stella then hugged Flea again
and again “Well I should get back to Johnny’s house he might think I ran away
and have my face on a milk carton he’s probably starving the poor thing” Reese
noted the end part on Stella. Stella
looked at Anthony and Flea with big smiles on their faces “Oh get over it! So she’s cute and perky and sweet but I’m
sure underneath that cover she’s a big bitch” “Nah I don’t think so she’s too nice
for that and sexy…” Anthony said, “Control your little garden snake”
“Little? What are you calling little?”
“Why don’t you ask her out?” Stella said, “It’s not like she and John are
dating” “Well maybe not but she loves John she always has rule of the thumb
don’t mess with her it won’t do you any good.”
“Johnny
I’m back” Reese called tugging the groceries in he and Chad came in to help her
“Thank you” she said hugging them both.
She set her purse on the counter and started to put the groceries away “I
ran into Mike and Anthony at the store” she didn’t mention Stella she knew
that’s not what John needed to hear.
“Are you hungry?” she asked John “Oh yeah” he answered, “How about I fix
you homemade lasagna?” “Sounds good!” John agreed. “If you want you can stay for dinner Chad,” she said “Nah I’m
going out tonight besides don’t you want to be alone with Johnny?” he teased
her face turned red “Don’t you have somewhere to be?” John asked “Bye Johnny”
Chad waved leaving. Reese sucked it up
and started cooking.
Reese
watched John eat “Aren’t you eating anything?” “No, I’m fine” “C’mon here…” she
took a bite “Happy?” she asked “No, I think you should eat something you’re a
bag of bones” “I will don’t worry” she said happily as he stuffed another fork
full of lasagna. By the time John was
done he had put away almost the whole pan of lasagna leaving Reese a small
square which she was fine with. After
dinner Reese got behind John and started massaging him “Does that feel good?”
“Yes…” John moaned out as she rubbed his tense areas.
John
felt Reese kiss his shoulder she had her hands at the rim of his shirt and took
it off of him. He laid forward on the
sofa while Reese massaged him to sleep she kissed his back all over then kissed
his lips. In the morning John woke up
to the smell of several foods cooking he knew Reese was up. He came in the kitchen shirtless “Good
morning did you sleep well?” “Too well how about you?” “I slept just
wonderfully” she smiled. She put his
plate in front of him “Thanks” “You’re welcome” she accepted cheerfully.
John
and Reese were sitting on the couch again “Do you want to do something today?”
“Not really” he said “Okay” “If you have something you need to do go ahead I’ll
be okay here by myself” “That’s okay it can wait actually it’s just some boring
junk I have to do…what’s important to me right now is you just you” John had
never felt this important to someone except with Stella. “How about I go with you to do what you have
to?” “That would be great!” her face lit up.
The
errand Reese had to run was as she said boring. John and Reese were leaving the building they had decided to go
out to lunch before going home. John
inadvertently took Reese’s hand. There
was a photographer not too far away watching John and snapping pictures. John was telling Reese funny things she was
laughing he’d whisper in her ear.
In
the morning Reese was looking at a magazine John was up “Good morning” “Good
morning look at what these awful people did!
They were taking pictures of us yesterday read this” she handed John the
book “Dumb fuckers…it’s no big deal they just want a fast buck is all” he
reassured Reese that’s all it was.
Reese cut the pictures and article out “I’ll put in my box” she said
throwing the magazine away “You slept soundly last night I heard you snoring
from my room” she giggled “Sorry you should have woke me” “No, you needed your
rest” she went to check on the breakfast she was making “You know if you keep
cooking for me my pants won’t fit anymore” he laughed “Well at least you’re
well fed though” she pinched his cheek.
After
breakfast John sat down at the telephone and took out a small black book. Reese came in and sat down with him “I think
I’m going out tonight” John said opening the book “Oh okay I guess I’ll stay
here” John stopped a moment he noticed for the first time that Reese wasn’t her
usual happy self. He put the book down
and sat next to her “If you want we can go out” “No that’s okay you go with who
you want I’ll be okay I can rent movies” she said going to get up when John
pulled her back down “Johnny?” “You’re not okay with this really I know you
aren’t” “Yes, yes I am!” she defended “Reese if this bothers you just say so
you know I respect you and love you like my sister” she was on the verge of
tears this time “Well I…don’t need you to pity me to stay here! JUST GO OUT!” she yelled going into her room
crying. John knocked on the door “Go
away” “Reese please open the door” he heard her sobs. He sat in front of it “I’m sorry if I seem to be taking you for
granted but I’m heartbroken and you know that I just can’t love you like that I
can do something though…” he said she opened the door “What?” he stood up “Do
you want to…you know?” “If that’s all you can give right now then yes I do,”
she said putting her arms around him.
The
moment Reese felt John enter her she knew no one after this could do the
same. She sighed and wretched with
pleasure “John! John!” she gasped he
kissed her entering harder each time.
He grabbed her thighs and put them around his waist “I love you John”
she whispered “Tell me you love me” John kissed her “I love you” he whispered
back. She held him tightly as if so he
couldn’t escape her grasp. He kissed
her into releasing him “I need more of you Johnny” she whispered. After three more hours of lovemaking Reese
woke up alone “Johnny?” she asked getting up to find he wasn’t there.
Reese
knew John had gone out but she didn’t mind too much she knew John didn’t belong
to her. She went to the video store to
rent movies when she ran into Anthony “Need any movies from the top shelf?” he
asked “Oh hey Anthony!” she pinched his cheek “As a matter of fact I do…I want
that one” she pointed to a gruesome horror flick “Are you sure? That movie is pretty gross” “Yeah I know but
Johnny likes horror” “If you say so” he grabbed it for her “Thanks” “So how are
things with John?” “Good he’s out tonight with someone” she tried to say it
without hinting that bothered her “You know this is John’s fault we both know
that John will only drag you down” she turned to him “He needs me Anthony and I
need him too” she said going to the counter.
“She
needs him?” Flea asked, “That’s a laugh!” “I have a feeling John has strung her
along nicely with a good incentive but for him to lead her on is just sickening
she’s letting her love go to waste on someone who will never love her” Anthony
said “I know…” there was a knock on the door it was John. “Oh it’s you” “What’d I do now?” John asked
coming in “Ran into Reese in the video store she said you were out. Done having fun at her expense?” “I didn’t
go out I mean I left the house but I didn’t go far just to the liquor store she
doesn’t want alcohol or drugs in the house” “Oh she thinks you’re out with
another girl” “Wait a minute what business is this yours? She’s my friend not yours!” John got
aggressive and possessive he turned and walked out. “He’s had too much to drink.”
John
came in to see Reese watching a movie “Hey.
What’s wrong?” she saw the look on his face. He had come there to yell and to cuss at her for involving
Anthony in their affairs but she was too sweet to do that to her she meant well
he was sure. “Nothing” he said sitting
next to her and started kissing her and touching her “I need you,” he said in
her ear they went into his bedroom.
After
that night John and Reese started dating she made it her objective to help John
forget Stella. It had became apparent
to those around the two that they were engaged. Anthony and Flea were suspicious of John’s motives.
Reese
was getting a manicure and pedicure when she saw Stella again. Stella plopped in the seat next to her and
saw the ring on her finger. Stella
couldn’t say it but she was a little jealous it was a way better ring than John
had given her “Congratulations I hope you two find the happiness you need”
“Thank you the same to you” Stella didn’t like her cheeriness “So John is
finally over me huh?” “I’d say so but a part of him will always love you” she
said happily “GRRR!” Stella got up from the seat.
“She’s
too damn nice!” Stella growled “And this bothers you why?” “It just does she
thinks she’s so happy well John will change that! He’s a black hole! He’ll
suck her in!” “Stella that’s mean although I think she might get her heart
broke he’s trying to make you jealous and it’s working” “I’m not jealous she’s
too calm!” “Jealous” “AM NOT!” Stella screamed at Anthony “You’re crawling all
over this you are jealous!” she slapped him in the arm “Screw you!” she left
his house.
Stella
went to John’s house “Why are you engaged to her?” Stella asked “That’s not
really your business now” he said letting her in “It is if you’re trying to
make me jealous” “I’m not! I made a
conscious descision to marry the woman that loves me” “Oh what was I? I guess I didn’t love you enough to let you
walk all over me and cheat is that right?” “That’s not it at all I haven’t
cheated on her!” “Yeah well how many times have you thought about it?” “Unlike
you she listens to me and appreciates having me around. You only wanted me to do what you wanted she
likes to do what I want when I want” “That’s because she’s a doormat! She has no backbone!” Stella yelled in his
face when the door opened “Johnny! I’m
back” she saw Stella in the living room “Hello Stella” she kissed John’s now
red and frustrated cheek. “I have to
go…” Stella said leaving “What’d she want sweetie?” “Nothing she just came to
argue” “Oh she got you all worked up…how about I help you relax?” “What would
help me relax is sex…lots of sex.”
Reese
did as John wanted they went at it for two days straight finally she was tired
and so was he. “Did I please you?” she
asked laying her head on his chest “Yes” he rubbed her hair away from her back
and ran his fingers up and down her back she fell asleep.
Even
after marriage Reese kept hearing rumors but she didn’t believe them. She trusted John and loved him enough to
take his word. They had gotten pregnant
not too long after marriage they had a little girl Anastasia Trinket
Frusciante. Reese came in the house and
set Anastasia on the sofa and checked her messages “Uncle Anthony called” she
told her daughter who just cooed. She
called him back “Hey did you call me?” “Yeah I don’t want to tell you this but
John…he called me last night” “Okay is he almost finished in the studio?”
“That’s just it he’s not in the studio he’s with…” “Don’t say it I’ve heard it
before” “It’s true though” “I’ll handle it thanks anyways” she hung up.
John
came in the house “Hey Ana!” he lifted her up and kissed her face “Where’s
mommy?” “In here” he came in the kitchen with the baby. Reese was cooking dinner wiping her eyes
“What’s wrong?” “John are you cheating on me?” she asked flat out “No” “Why…why
did you call Anthony and tell him so?” he was caught in a lie “You’re lying to
me too…what did I do John?” “I don’t want to hurt you” he said putting
Anastasia down “I love you” “Do you?” she asked “Yes look I’m sorry” “Love is
not having to say you’re sorry” he had hurt Reese terribly. She sat at the table and sobbed, “What do
you want to do from here?” he asked “The only way I won’t leave you is if you
seek counseling with me” “All right.”
They
sought counseling but John just kept doing it again and again. He cheated less than he did drugs. It got to the point Reese knew she couldn’t
help John anymore he wasn’t the same.
She was getting ready to leave with Anastasia when John came in “What’s
all this?” he asked looking around at the boxes “I’m leaving you I can’t handle
who you’ve become you’re always messed up and your verbally violent” “I am
not!” John yelled she jumped a little “Just unpack your stuff we’ll call Dr.
Savini” “John when we went there we were better off than now it’s not helping”
“It will just put your stuff down!” he screamed at her again she backed up a
little. He came toward her “Do you hear
me? I SAID UNPACK YOUR SHIT!” he shook
her until she hit the wall then he held her neck and punched her over and over
again “AHHHHH JOHN STOP IT!” she screamed pushing him away finally she ran into
Anastasia’s room and locked the door.
He seemed unaffected and left the house.
Reese
packed even quicker in the fear he’d come back she left a note saying she’d be
sending someone for the rest of her stuff.
She took Anastasia to the first house she could find. Reese wound up at Anthony’s house he opened
the door. She had a baseball cap on
with her hair over her blacked out eye.
“What’s going on?” she was crying, “I needed somewhere to go” “Why? What happened?” she came in and sat a sleep
Anastasia on the sofa. She took off the
hat and uncovered her eye “He did that?” she nodded. Mixed emotions filled Anthony but all of them led to anger she
was shaking he helped her sit down.
“He’s been cheating on me and doing drugs again…he came in and we argued
about me leaving he didn’t want me to but I knew I had to then he shook me
until I hit the wall…then he held my neck and started punching me” she bawled
he held her close “It’s okay you’re safe here I have to make a call I’ll be
back down in a minute” “Okay” Reese said.
Anthony
went upstairs and called Flea “He did what?” “He beat the living shit out of
her! She has this huge black eye and
his hand print around her throat and I’m pretty sure her body’s bruised” “What
are you going to do?” “Well I’ll call Chad I want you to come stay with her she
needs someone right now” “Where are you going?” “To pay Mr. Frusciante a visit
he’ll never forget sober or clean!” Anthony said.
Flea
came over to stay with Reese “Where’s Anthony going?” “With Chad” was all Flea said
“When will he be back?” “After he gets his business done just relax” he said
soothing her she reached her hand over and rubbed Anastasia’s back.
Anthony
and Chad found John at a bar “There he is” Anthony pointed they walked up
behind him. Anthony tapped his shoulder
he turned around and got a fist in his eye “Didn’t you ever learn never hit a
lady? Or did your dad just take over
when you were talking to her?” “Fuck you!
You don’t know what this is about!” “I don’t care what it’s about you
beat your wife almost to death! You
could’ve killed her!” John got off the stool “What business is it yours?” “It
became my business the minute she pulled in my driveway!” “Fuck you both! I can take you shitheads!” “Oh really?”
“Yeah!” he dared they pounced him.
Flea
handed Reese a glass of water “Thanks” she took a drink “This has never
happened before I mean not this bad” “What’d you mean not this bad? Has he hit you before?” she had said too
much “Well it was a minor slap here or there” “That’s not the point how long
has he been doing this to you?” she looked at Flea square in the eye “Two years
after we met that’s when it began” “He’s been hitting you all this time and you
never told anyone?” “He swore it’d never happen again” “But it just kept on and
kept on?” “He made a mistake” “It’s abuse not a mistake! He’s an abusive person” “No!” she yelled in
his defense “You know it is stop defending him he’s in the wrong now!” she
cried when the door opened. Anthony and
Chad came in “Well?” Flea asked, “The bastard got his!” Anthony said, “You beat
him up?” Reese asked scared he might be hurt “Of course we did he could’ve
killed you” “I have to find him and see if he’s all right…” Anthony held
Reese’s shoulders “No now wouldn’t be a good time to see him” “I didn’t ask you
to go out and to this to him!” “Well obviously you wanted something done and I
know it or else you would’ve stayed for round two and you might not have lived
to see round three.”
Later
that night Anthony helped Reese put up the guestroom for her and the small room
near Anthony’s for Anastasia. Reese
came into Anthony’s room and sat on the bed “I’m so tired I haven’t slept much
since John has been fading in and out on me and Ana” Anthony wrapped his arms
around her “I understand I just became a single man” Reese smiled a moment “You
warned me” “It’s okay you thought you were doing the right thing by sticking by
his side that shows you love him for real I guess I was doing that because I
was a little jealous I always thought you were hot” she blushed immensely “Wow
I never knew I always thought the rest of you guys thought I was a silly child”
“Well you did talk to us like we were five” Anthony said “I just wanted you
guys to you know be more comfortable with me” “We were when you didn’t do that
to us” “Sorry” “It’s okay you’re such a sweetie” Anthony kissed her cheek. Reese turned to him and looked at him
innocently “Would I be you know skanky if I were to kiss you right now?” he
smiled “I dunno kiss me and see” she leaned upward and kissed his mouth
softly. Anthony immediately placed his
tongue inside her mouth. She participated
until they started touching one another she pulled away a moment “Well how do
you feel?” Anthony asked “Good…more than good I feel safe” she said they were
getting closer “You wanna do it again?” “Yes” they were already kissing before
she could finish saying anything else.
Reese
wrapped her hands around Anthony’s neck as he grooved in and out of her warm
tunnel. They kissed softly then got
aggressive he’d kiss her neck and shoulders while she held his neck and arms.
Anthony
heard a noise in the living room. “Dammit!”
it was John he was exiting the house. “What
are you doing here?” Anthony scowled John turned around. He had a busted lip and both eyes black “I
came to…see how Reese and Ana are doing” “Yeah they’re doing fine” “Yeah
judging by the way she was clutching your chest this morning I’d say she was
doing peachy” John said snidely “It’s none of your business anymore until you
get your fucking head on straighter” “I fucked up I admit that…” “For once in
your life you’re actually taking responsibility because you can’t blame your
dad this time! It’s all you John all
you” “Would you get off my fucking case bastard!?!” John was getting closer “What’s
going on?” Reese was in the doorway “Nothing we were just talking” Anthony
answered her “What are you doing here John?” “I was just leaving…you can send Anthony
for the rest of your shit” Reese was hurt by the comment she ran into the
kitchen. “Get out of my house” “Fine by
me I’ll leave the key somewhere in the mailbox so you can get her stuff” “You’re
really walking away like a coward” Anthony tried to stop him “Well you’ve had
her so that must mean it’s my time to pass the torch on because who knows what
she’s got now” Anthony was angered to the point of physical violence. He jumped on John smashing his glass coffee
table.
Reese
ran back in and started screaming for them to stop “JUST STOP IT! YOU’RE NOT MAKING MATTERS ANY BETTER!” John
got up and was leaving “Whenever you decide to drop the Pretty Boy call me”
John said leaving. Reese helped Anthony
up “Are you okay?” “Yeah I started it!” “What’d he say?” “Nothing good that’s
for sure” “I think I should at least talk to him” “If you want but didn’t last
night…” “I need time to sort this out so could you take care of Ana while I
just I dunno…” “Sure you take all the time you need.”
Reese
rode over to her old house to see John was leaving. She hopped in the car with him “What the…?” “We need to talk” “Where’s
Anthony? Don’t you want him to do the
talking for you? Or is his main
function limited to the bedroom?” “You’re being spiteful because you’re hung
over…do you love me at all?” Reese asked looking at the dashboard she couldn’t
eye him at the moment waiting for the answer.
“Well, the truth is no I strung you along and played you just to get
back at Stella but you carried Ana which I wasn’t expecting…but I still don’t
love you” she began to cry “Wow…no one has ever hurt my feelings like you
have. I took up for you, I defended you
around your friends, I made you look good, I kept you comfortable, I did
whatever you wanted and this was all a game to you? Just like playing house?” “Basically…I’m sorry” “Sorry doesn’t
take back all the years I could’ve married someone decent! Sorry doesn’t take back all the time I put
into your sorry ass!” she got out “I want you to never see Ana again I don’t
want you around someone you don’t love!” “I didn’t say I didn’t love her
because she’s precious to my heart” “Fuck you!” she slammed the door going inside. John sat in the driveway a minute or two to
see his things busting through the glass of the windows in the house. He jumped out when his Fender Strat came
flying into his windshield “WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM? I didn’t break your shit!”
Reese
came out the house with another guitar “Oh no you wouldn’t dare! That’s a 50,000 dollar guitar!” “Oh who
wouldn’t?” she held it tightly and started banging his windows and mirrors on
his Hummer. He was in total shock when
Anthony pulled up. He was conflicting
from stopping her to laughing he ducked when the guitar went flying into the
road. A big tractor and trailer ran
over it “FUCK! FUCK!!” “And that’s just the beginning asshole!” she got in his
car and drove it through the garage smashing his new Bently “OH NO NOT MY
BENTLY!” she broke the door off and climbed out and left it running.
“Are
you done yet?” “NO!” she ran in the house and upstairs. “Hey John!
You remember this?” she held up all his Ninja Turtle memorabila “Don’t! Let’s talk first” “Talk is over dickhead!”
she threw them into the neighbor’s yard and bit some head’s off. “Oh yeah and all these watches??? What if they were to land in the pool?” “FUCK
NOT THE ROLLEX!” he ran to the backyard with Anthony. They were all floating in the swimming pool John was ready to
tear his hair out “OH JOHN NOT THE PLATINUM RECORDS!” “I’ve gotta stop
her! I’m not insured too well” he went
to run in but she locked the doors he heard a shatter “LETS NOT FORGET THE GOLD
ONES THEY’LL MAKE GREAT FRISBEES!” Anthony and John were dodging discs left and
right. “LETS SEE WHAT I CAN DO TO THE
DVD PLAYERS AND VHS AND THE BIG SCREENS!” they heard her smashing through the
house. “OH WHAT’S THIS? Granny Fru’s urn!” “OH GOD! NOT MY GRANNY PLEASE!” CRASH! John had
chills hearing it smash against the floor “BETTER VACCUM THE FLOOR” “Please
stop now!” it was silent when the vaccum flew out the window still on and
landed in the water. Anthony jumped
away from the pool area when electrical sparks flew up. She opened the door “Finally she’s done” he
said when she started throwing pictures at him “This is for all the years you
wasted my life!” “OW THAT’S GLASS!” “TAKE IT LIKE THE BITCH YOU ARE!” she ran
out of pictures then collapsed on the kitchen floor crying.
Flea
and Chad came around the backyard “Oh my god!
What the fuck happened?” Chad asked, “She broke everything! She killed my Hummer and my Bently! And my Ninja Turtles” she finally got up “Serves
you right I’m sorry you guys had to see our house this way today” she fixed her
hair and straightened up “You’re sorry for them? What about me?” John asked “Checks in the mail!” she said going
back to her car “Come on Anthony I need to get the rest of my stuff then we’ll
be out of John’s hair.”
A
week later Reese came back to the house to see John moving the things that
weren’t damaged she saw Stella waiting for him in the car “Come to break the rest?”
“Well it wasn’t on my agenda but I guess I could” she picked up a vase and
smashed it in the floor “Feel better now?” he asked “Yeah, John I’m sorry I
reacted the way I did but you used me and that just tore me apart” “Well I
guess I should’ve been more careful I mean you think you know a person you
never told me about your physcho tendencies” “Never came up anyways I’m here to
give you the divorce papers and you might as well give me half of what’s not
broken because that’s the official ruling” “What about Ana?” “You still can’t
see her” “Oh” “Yeah that’s the brakes well if you’ll sign these I can get back
home and start planning my wedding” “You and Anthony?” “Yeah it was quite funny
after seeing me tear our house apart he still wants to take a chance” “Tell him
I said GOOD LUCK!” he signed the papers and let her go. Stella came to him “Did you learn something
valuable out of this John?” “Yeah not to marry friends!”
