Chapter 33

"I can't believe I'm doing this," Vincent said taking a few deep breaths.

"It'll be alright Vincent," Laura assured him.

"It's like I wasted part of my life for nothing and now I'm facing this dreaded consequence that is consuming my soul."

"Vincent, do not metaphorically speak about yourself like that."

"I know but that's how I feel."

"Vincent, yesterday I saw a happier side to you. What happened?"

"I don't know."

"I know that I don't have first hand experience with divorce but I know that whatever you must feel right now must be purely awful and I'm sorry that you have to go through it. You don't deserve this."

"Why do you care for me so much?" he asked staring deep into her eyes.

"Why did you really want me to be here?"

Vincent just smiled and Laura gently stroked his hair and put an arm around him for comfort.

"They're ready," Donna said walking out into the hall from the office.

"Are you coming in with me?" Vincent asked getting up.

"If you want me to."

Vincent nervously shook his head.

"Okay," she said giving him a quick hug and taking his hand. "You can do it Vincent," she whispered.

He smiled and they soon walked into the office knowing that once they left he would begin yet a new chapter in his life.
