Not Going Back

Laurel POV

The work load at the office was so much, the moment I finished having dinner with my parents, all I just wanted to do was to go lay on my bed and go to sleep.

I decided to call Miriam and check up on her before going to bed.

"Hello?" She sounded sleepy..

"Miriam you were already sleeping?"

"Yes."

"Okay I will call you back tomorrow."

"I broke up with Oscar."

"You did what?!"

"I will give you the details tomorrow, we are no longer together. Goodnight Laurel."

"Goodnight Miriam!" I screamed her name in excitement, finally my friend has taken the bold step to freedom.

I was still jubilating when my mother came into my bedroom and switched on the light.

"Laurel honey, can I have a word with you?" She asked me.

"Yes mummy, sure." I sat up on my bed.

My mother came in and sat on a chair beside my bed.

"How was your day?" She asked me.
