Track 27. All You Had To Do Was Stay (4:10)
Lisa
One week later…
THE MOMENT I RETURNED from New York, I drove to Super Suds to see if Jennie was spending the night there. When I didn't see her, I headed home and poured two glasses of her favorite wine.
Carrying them to her bedroom, I knocked on her door. "Jennie, I'm back from New York. Can we please talk?"
She didn't answer.
"Jennie, can you please open your door so I can apologize for everything I said?"
I waited five minutes. "Okay, I'm coming in…"
I twisted the doorknob and pushed the door open. I dropped the wine glasses to the floor as I realized that all of her things were gone. Everything looked exactly how it did before she moved in and she'd left a single pink post-it on her bed.
Forget You, Lisa.
