Chapter 28 : Goodbye For Now

The knock on my door was the last thing I wanted to hear. I was laying on my couch in my pajamas, working my way through an entire bag of chips and not paying attention to some trashy reality show that was playing on my tv for hours.

I drank too much after returning from the hospital last night. The entire situation was a little too much for me to handle. Today, I called off of work and I was determined to wallow in my own misery. Facing the reality of everything that was happening had finally become too much for me.

I had no idea who could be knocking at my door. No one outside of the office knew that I’d called in. My phone was turned off and sitting on the nightstand in the other room, so if someone was trying to call me, they might have decided to come by and check on me. I wish they hadn’t bothered.
