Happier Without You

I’m happier without you. That’s what the love of my life, Peter, said to me, in the conversation that ended our relationship. I didn’t see it coming, and it left me reeling. What do you do when every plan you’ve made for your life, falls apart? I shut down. Life came back to me one heartbeat at a time, starting with my destroying a car that didn’t belong to me. Needless to say, I made an enemy in Tammy, one of the cheerleaders for Peter’s lacrosse team. Not only does she hate me, but every one of her friends do too, including my ex’s new girlfriend. While I avoid Tammy’s shots at me, I’ve been getting to know two people who showed up in my life. Poe and Cathy. For some reason, they like me, and Peter isn’t pleased about that. While trying to save myself from Tammy’s increasing threats, I have to deal with Peter trying to make me feel guilty for moving on. How do you move on when everyone wants to hold you down?
