| Peer Review, Epilogue This is not the last we will see of the girls or the woman. I have two stories in the pipeline. Stay Tuned! THE WOMAN "I'm Sorry." It was all the woman could say. She was rubbing her cheek to brush away the sting from the hard slap it just endured. "Three years? Three FUCKING years? For what? Your just throwing me away? Walking out? Fuck your apology." The woman's girlfriend was dripping in tears as she threw all of the woman's possessions from the apartment. "Get out! Go to your fucking whore!" The woman couldn't think of anything to say. She felt relieved, but torn inside for hurting her now ex so badly. She left the apartment, abandoning most of her belongings, never to see her girlfriend again. SAM AND BROOK Brook sat at her workbench with a soldering iron in hand. She was messing with some piece of electronics, changing it so it could do what she wanted, instead of what it was originally intended to do. She was not trying actively to ignore Sam, but was ignoring her none the less; such is the nature of her hobbies. "What are you doing, babe?" Sam sounded genuinely curious, and might have actually been so. "Adding a serial port to my FON" Brook answered flatly, she was trying to concentrate on not releasing the magic blue smoke that made the small piece of consumer electronics work. "Oh." Sam sounded a little deflated and disinterested. "You know, some of this stuff will be hard to move to my house." "I guess... Wait, what?" Brook put the tool down, and turned to look at her love. "I talked to my moms. They would love for you to move in with us... Excited even." "Why? What brought that up?" Sam bit her lip, and slipped out of her chair. She pulled a small box out of her purse and dropped to one knee, holding it up to Brook. |
