Harlyn Corbin sat in the hallway of the courthouse with her sister and her sister's boyfriend as she waited for him to arrive.
"You alright sis?" Eloria Wallace asked, resting her hand on Harlyn's arm.
"Yeah, I just wish he'd hurry up and get here."
"Your wish has been granted." A new voice spoke up and Harlyn looked to see Baron standing there with a smile on his face.
"About time you got here, let's get this over with." Harlyn said, standing up and walking into the courtroom.
"She's still determined to go through with this huh?" Baron asked and Eloria sighed.
"I'm afraid so."
"Now..." Judge Reid began, looking through the papers. "It looks like everything's in order here except for...Mr. Corbin it doesn't look like you signed the papers at all."
"That's right Your Honor."
"What?! Baron you told me you signed them already!" Harlyn exclaimed, glaring at him.
"So I lied. I didn't sign them and I'm not going to."
"Dammit! You said..."
"Mrs. Corbin you need to watch your language, this is a court of law." The judge spoke up and Harlyn turned to look at him.
"My apologies Your Honor but I was under the impression that he signed the papers because that's what he told me."
"Mr. Corbin is there any reason in particular why you forgot to sign the papers?"
"It slipped my mind, pure and simple. I..."
"Oh bullshit! Slipped your mind my ass! You just want to be..."
"Mrs. Corbin! One more outburst like that and I'll hold you in contempt of court! Now it is my impression that this divorce may be something only wanted on your part though I may be wrong. Here's what I'm going to do and this isn't something I'm known to do often so you need to use it to your advantage Mr. Corbin. I'm going to postpone this hearing for ninety days...in that time, I suggest you try and work this out if that's what you want Mr. Corbin. If after the ninety days, nothing has changed then I would suggest you sign the papers and move on with your life."
"Yes Your Honor, thank you very much."
Once the judge got up and left the courtroom, Harlyn walked over to where Baron was standing. "I hope you don't honestly think you can change my mind about this. It was a mistake to get married Baron and you know that as well as I do."
"I don't know any such thing momma but you can go on believing that if you want to."
"Don't fucking call me that." Harlyn hissed as Eloria and Braun walked over to them.
"There was a time not too long ago that that's all you wanted me to call you."
"Yeah, well...things change. I realized that this whole marriage was a mistake and you need to do the same thing." Harlyn said and walked out of the courtroom.
"Do you honestly think you can change her mind?" Eloria asked and Baron sighed.
"I'm sure as hell going to try."
