Bye, My Ex-husband

The week flew by, and in the blink of an eye, the weekend was around the corner.

That weekend, Janessa decided to stay at home to carve out the time to write her proposal.

This proposal couldn't be the same as the ones she or her colleagues had presented before.

She had to push her limits and think out of the box to produce a fresh concept for the project.

Creating something new and original was so hard that Janessa found herself staring at her computer screen thinking of solutions for two days in a row.

If this continued this way, she wouldn't be able to give Sally a decent proposal by Monday morning.

As she thought of her looming deadline, Janessa grew more anxious.

While she was busy pacing her room for ideas, her phone suddenly rang.

She took a look at the number on the screen and suddenly had a bad feeling about the call.

"Janessa.This man that I've been interested in will be singing at the Coco Bar tonight.Would you like to go with me?" Alana was notorious for being man crazy.

She had a history of becoming obsessed with handsome men.

Janessa could see the look of anticipation on Alana‘s face at this very moment.

"Come on, Alana! You're already twenty-eight years old! Do you still think we're in high school? Why are you always chasing after men? What would your parents think if they found out about this?" Janessa was nothing like Alana.

Her friend had lived a life free of worries and could do anything as she pleased, but Janessa wasn't fortunate enough to have that luxury.Janessa knew that she had a destiny to fulfill ever since she was a little girl.

Ever since she was young, she had worked tirelessly to reassure her parents, but now, she was all alone.

"Janessa, stop with that negativity! It's not doing you any good! You should try to live life as you please.You need to go after what makes you happy!"

"Forget I said anything.I'm not interested in parading around handsome men.You can go alone tonight."

After Janessa ended the call, she sat down on the sofa and thought of her proposal.

As she fell asleep, vague images of her parents crossed her mind.She imagined her parents slowly walking over to her with their hands intertwined.

"I've missed you both so much.I can't believe you're here."

When her father unexpectedly passed away, Janessa took on the mantle and became the backbone of her family.

She was determined to support her mother and give her a good life.

However, after her mother had passed away, and Janessa was forced into having an abortion, it seemed as if her whole life was falling apart. It had been difficult for her to carry on.
