“Christ Almighty…. Wow, what a shocker that must’ve been…” Helena said. The girls just finished telling her all the details that happened at Shane’s store.

“Hey guys! Look there’s Shane…” Tina pointed out in the crowd. Shane just got out from the bathroom looking sad, confused, and angry all of the emotions rolled into one. The girls head turned and looked at Shane as she walked out of the Planet, she looked left and right almost looking for something, but then she stared down and starts walking passing the Planet. Her hands were in her pocket. She looked like someone who has lost everything.

“Oh dear… that doesn’t look like it went very well, did it??” Helena looked back at the girls who is having god knows how many drinks.

“You don’t want to try… and talk to her?” Dana asked.

“Oh no. no, no, no. That would just waste my time…” Helena looked at Dane who is giving her a what-a-great-friend-you-are look. “No. I mean… I will definitely talk to her but right now… she needs her space. I know her too well to go and talk to her now. She’ll just probably go back to her store, or to the hotel, starts drinking… I’ll give her a good day or two…” Helena nodded to her self.

“Hey guys…” Alice came back to her girls table, looking much more composed after a quick wash on her face. The girls said their Hi’s to her with a sympathetic tone. They all know that Alice is spilling the beans in a good second or two, so they’re waiting for that just about to happen.

“… So…” Dana said, hoping there’s something to come out from Alice.

“So… she practically said that she loves me more than her wife and that she’ll end her marriage just to be with me. Fuck…” Alice exasperated, she looked up and face her friends. “I mean… I can’t do that right? I’m not going to be the one who’s going to end someone’s marriage; I mean I’m not a home-wrecker… I’m like the anti home-wrecker you know?” Alice said looking at her friends face. “I-I just can’t deal being the one who is going to destroy their family… Lily’s family.” Alice continued “I mean she’s been with Carmen for ten whole years guys… there’s just no way that I can compete with that…” Alice finishes.
