Karma was in the house while Liam was out in some meeting. She decided to call Lauren to give her the news that she was being elected as maid of honor. Karma dialed Lauren's number and waited for an answer.
"Hey bride to be. How's everything?" Lauren greeted Karma.
"Well everything is being taken care off. Liam's parents offered to do everything weeding related so that's a relief." Karma informed Lauren. " I was calling to ask you something. Are you busy?"
"No, not at all. I was just finishing giving Emma a bath. What is it?"
"Well…" Karma waited, "I was wondering if you would be the maid of honor of out wedding?" Karma inquired.
"Are you serious?" Lauren screamed in excitement, "Of course I'd love to."
Karma smiled as she heard her friend's excitement, she wished she were as happy for this wedding as Lauren was. "I need you to come to New York. When do you think you'll be able to come?"
"I can leave next week if you want." Lauren proposed.
"Great that's great I can't wait to see you and show around." Karma said happily, at least she could spend a couple of days with someone whose company she'd actually enjoy.
Amy knocked at the door before Lindsay opened up. Amy walked in and sat down on the couch.
"How was work?" Lindsay started the conversation.
"It was good." Amy replied with a short answer. She didn't know which way was better to break the news. She took a deep breath. "Lindsay, we need to talk?"
"What about?" Lindsay said nervously.
"Us. Look Lindsay you're an amazing person." Lindsay's expression changed as if she already knew what was coming. "You're clearly looking for someone to settle down with, and that's okay. I'm just not ready for this kind of relationship." Amy finished.
"Are you breaking up with me?" Lindsay asked not wanting to face it.
Amy looked at her. "I'm very sorry. I think it's for the best."
"I can't believe this." She scoffed. "I can change."
"You don't need to change for anyone. I'm sure that you'll find someone who will." Amy told Lindsay who was still in shock.
"I don't want anyone else, I want you" Lindsay said desperately trying to get Amy not to break up with her.
"I'm sorry Lindsay but I've made my decision." Amy stood up. "Take care of yourself, I wish you the best." Amy said truthfully. When Amy began to make her way to the door Lindsay went ballistic.
"You know what! I hate you! I HATE YOU AMY RAUNDENFELD!" Lindsay screamed, as she got closer to Amy she began hitting Amy but Amy held her hands until she could close the door. She fixed her jacket and got inside of her car.
3 days later
Amy had taken the break up rather well. Its like her mind was prepared for it. After she came from Lindsay's house she went for a jog to clear her head. Then when she came back Lauren was waiting for her to hear everything she was literally making popcorn like if this was some sort of main event. When Amy finished telling her about the showdown, Lauren couldn't help but say to Amy that she was right all along. Lauren always saw through Lindsay's manipulative behavior, but at least she was out of their lives.
Lauren, Amy and Emma were grocery shopping. Amy had the day off and she decided to spend the whole day with them. Lauren was the one placing the stuff in the cart and Amy was the one pulling it and watching Emma. As they kept going down the aisles Lauren was a few steps in front of Amy and Emma, she suddenly observed three different women smiling and giggling, Lauren turned around and saw that Amy was responsible for this.
"Wow Amy this is a new low." Lauren scoffed in disbelief.
"What?" Amy asked pulling the cart next to her.
"I can't believe you use your niece to score dates." Lauren shook her head smiling.
"Hey! Emma and I made a deal. She helps me, I get her toys." She made a funny face to Emma, "Right, Em?" Emma broke into giggles.
"You two are unbelievable."
"As a matter of fact we make one hell of a team, she's a better wing woman than you ever were." Amy joked, Lindsay had always tried to set her up with blind dates, and those dates were disastrous.
"Can I see you in action?" Lauren requested, "I want to see you get a phone number out of any woman here."
"That's not going to happen. I just got off a relationship. I'm still a little wounded." Amy pouted putting her hands to her heart jokingly.
Lauren laughed. "Has she tried calling you?"
"Only like 30 times a day, and that does not include the texts." Amy replied showing Lauren all the missed notifications.
"Told you she was crazy." Lauren gloated.
Amy punched her softly in her arm. All of the sudden they heard someone cough purposely. They looked to the side and saw Lindsay with her arms crossed. "Why haven't you been answering my calls?
"I had nothing to say to you." Amy told her directly. Lauren discretely tugged on Amy's shirt signaling for them to leave, but Lindsay saw this and wasn't too happy about it. They began to walk away slowly.
"Hmm. To busy screwing other women?" Lindsay yelled loudly enough to make the people around them listen.
"That's really none of you business." Lauren interjected. Lauren and Lindsay shared death stares. Their dislike for one another was mutual.
"So are you two a thing now?" Lindsay asked.
"You've got to be kidding me." Amy covered her eyes with both hands. This question didn't any make sense.
Lauren rolled her eyes. "Really? Wow. I didn't peg you as stupid."
"Its pretty obvious there's something going on between you two." Lindsay insisted raising her voice again.
"Yes, its called being sisters." Amy pointed out. Amy maintained her patience with all of this, someone had to.
"Then tell who are you cheating me with?" People were staring at the scene unraveling in front of them. Emma heard all the yelling and began crying, she was not used to hearing people screaming so close to her.
Lauren withdrew Emma from the shopping cart and began to try and soothe her. Amy hated seeing Emma crying, she approached Lindsay, "Can you please lower your voice? And this isn't the place to have the conversation. You're scaring Emma." Amy looked back at her niece.
"Emma this, Emma that I don't give a shit about that girl!" Lindsay escalated quickly. Amy gave up; she turned her back on her ex girlfriend. Lindsay didn't not like this one bit she replicated her actions from 3 days before and began ponding Amy from behind. "You can't leave me Amy Raudenfeld!" Amy turned around and tried her best to contain Lindsay's hits.
"Ma'am I need you to leave the establishment or I will have no choice of calling the police." The manager warned Lindsay as he observed that Amy was doing anything. This didn't faze Lindsay she just continued to try and make contact with Amy, but Amy was stronger. The police arrived shortly after and apprehended Lindsay. They interrogated a couple of people from the supermarket and all of them vouched that Amy and Lauren had not instigated the incident. Amy was asked if she wanted to press charges against Lindsay, but she refused to do so. Amy understood that this outburst was part of her process of acceptance. She didn't want to ruin her record with something like this.
