    blind-sided. That night she asked him to consider moving out of the house and by the time the weekend arrived, the moving truck pulled up and he was gone. She was sitting in the middle of an empty living room when the doorbell sounded. Without waiting for an answer, Becky walked into the house. Cassie looked up at her friend and began to cry. The two sat on the floor for hours, talking about the turn of events and how their lives in no way mirrored those of their parents. As daylight melted away and darkness laid its blanket over the town, Cassie no longer felt as sad. Wine was opened, pizza was ordered and Cassie’s first night alone was no longer lonely. Summer was coming to an end, but not the heat. It had been one of those really hot and humid weeks that drained your energy. Cassie was having a go at the late season weeds in her front flower bed when she heard Becky call from across the street. “Hey! Have you got plans for dinner?” “Other than collapsing after a shower?” “I picked up a couple of small steaks to grill. Come one over around six and we’ll get them started,” Becky called to her. “And bring a bottle of wine, if you’ve got one.” Cassie felt a little more human after a cool shower.

Do you know the first thing he asked was if I had read ’50 Shades of Gray’ and had I seen the movie! I almost spit out my drink when I read that. I proceeded to give him a critique on that badly written piece of shit. He came back and told me that wasn’t exactly what he meant. Really?” They carried the salad, wine and steaks to the back deck, where the grill was already warming up. The two friends laughed and compared notes. Becky, having been alone a bit longer, had already gone through two boyfriends. Cassie wasn’t in a real hurry, even though her ex had started and was in an exclusive relationship with the first woman he asked out.
