“My life sucks. My life is over.”
“What is going on? Are you okay? You don’t have cancer, do you?”
Gavin started laughing. A lot, actually. It kinda sounded like hysterics. “No, you idiot. I don’t have cancer. Blake broke up with me!”
“Shit.” It was the only response I could come up with. I was speechless.
“Shit is correct.”
“No wonder you didn’t come in to work. When did it happen?”
“Friday night. I burned a perfectly good chicken in the oven. It was baking when he decided to have his little “talk”. Needless to say, I forgot about the chicken, and after he left, I noticed the smoke. That really pissed me off. He could have at least left the chicken out of it.”
I wasn’t quite following, but I said, “Yeah…” anyway.
“I think I gained fifty pounds. I have eaten ten pints of Ben & Jerry’s in the last three days.”
“I would be throwing up. They’d have to pump my stomach.”
“The despair digested it.”
