CHAPTER 33| LIES
" I haven't seen Tina around. She's gone?" Chase asks.
It's Saturday and I'm in my apartment with Chase. I'm happy we're back together and on good terms. I've been avoiding Anderson's calls since Friday, yesterday because I want nothing to ruin this for me. We just got back together after I almost ruined things and eventually broke things off with Chase.
I know what I'm doing is bad. Leaving Anderson on hang because of my reasons. He doesn't deserve any of the treatment I'm giving him. He's the second man who genuinely likes me and I just mistreated him. I feel bad. I mean, I should feel bad. But today, maybe when Chase is gone, I'm going to drive to Anderson's house and tell him what's really happening and I'm going to break up with him. It's already decided.

" It's illegal right?" I ask Chase. We're in my bedroom and he's yet to leave after dinner. My fingers play with the diamond necklace he bought me around my neck.

The day all of this pretentious act that has to deal with Chase comes to an end. If I'm lucky, today should be a good day for me. Chase left last night and I don't remember him leaving my bedroom. When I woke up at midnight, I found a handwritten note by Chase, telling me he couldn't spend the night and that he had to leave. Attached with beautiful kisses and I love yous. I quickly take a shower and get dressed in a dark grey short sleeve dress. I slip my feet inside my pumps. I add a little natural make up and twirl around in front of my mirror. I look good. I grab my handbag and walk out of my bedroom to the kitchen. I am correct. Mom is in the kitchen eating bacon and eggs, with coffee on the side." Good morning, ma." I smile at my mom and grab a mug to pour myself some already brewed coffee."

I don't want him to worry because of me and the other reason is because I don't want him to know about my job. I want to tell him myself and I'm planning on doing that tomorrow which is Sunday." Tanner, can you at least decipher whose person's number is that?" Roxie asks. We're all in our houses since it's Saturday morning." It's a blocked number and a complete dead end."
