30-HELENA

"So... tonight’s bar night?" Jenny asked when I entered the reception “Asera said there’s gonna ribs.”

"You’ve just bought me with that," I accepted happily eating the last potato chip from the bag. "Are there more of these? They are delicious.”

"That's the third bag so far this morning, my dear, I think that's your limit," she replied amused seeing me throw the bag in the trash. "But it's almost lunch time."

“What am I supposed to do meanwhile?” I asked sighing dramatically.

“How about a massage?” she pointed down the hall. "An unexpected date came and you are the only one free."

"Okay," I shrugged walking over to where my friend pointed. "It’s in my cubicle?"

“That's how it’s.”

I made my way to my cubicle with the knowledge that in an hour I would be sitting with a large plate full of pizza and fried chicken that I would devour with desire.

God... lately my stomach didn’t fill with anything.

It's been 43 days
