There she goes - Foxtales 23

There she goes. Aline could hear other women talking about her. News of her divorce had spread in her little town. They'd been high school sweethearts, the golden couple of Point Melody. He'd been the star quarter back, with a state university scholarship, she'd been the pregnant teenager. She'd stayed home. But he'd come back. They had been married just before Nia was born. He passed out of college and joined investment firms, rose in his career to become the youngest CEO of one of the oldest corporations in the world. She'd stayed home. One day she thought she'd surprise him at his office, she caught him with two escorts. She wished that she'd stayed home. He was unapologetic. The court gave Nia's custody to her father. So I came to Point Melody. I had no idea why she came home. Those smirks and whispers. I felt a panic attack coming on but then I reached home. There were tears in mom's eyes and dad had made barbeque. Mom handed me some college brochures. I'm home.
