"Janet,
Our divorce will be final soon. I have spoken with my lawyer and drawn up the papers. I came by the house today to pick up the last of my things and to take what has been given to me in the divorce settlement. I plan on selling the house, but I will give you plenty of time to find another place to live. I hate that things had to end this way, but you knew how I felt from the beginning. If you would like to contact me, please call my lawyer. This is all for the best.
-David"

Janet folded up the note and wondered what all David had taken as she unlocked the front door and stepped inside. She froze in shock. Every single piece of furniture in the den and the kitchen was gone. She ran upstairs to check the rooms. The only thing left was the bed and their wedding picture that was hanging on the den wall.
"How could you do this to me! I hate you, you bastard!" Janet yelled at the top of her lungs as hot tears of anger fell down her cheeks.
She ran back downstairs and took their wedding picture off the wall. She threw it across the room and the glass shattered all over the floor.
"My heart is shattered just like that picture frame." She thought as she melted to the floor.

Jack closed the restaurant for the night and went upstairs to his apartment. He sat down and flipped on the TV.
"Another dull evening." He mumbled to himself.
He was taking the change from his pockets when he felt a folded piece of paper. He pulled it out and remembered that it was Janet's phone number. He smiled as he thought of her.
"It wouldn't hurt to give her a call." He reasoned as he picked up the phone and started dialing.
-
Janet heard the phone ring and got up to answer it. If it was David, he was about to get an ear full from her. She grabbed the reciever and put it up to her ear.
"Hello."
"Hello, Janet? This is Jack Tripper."
"Oh, Hi Jack."
"Hi. How are you tonight?"
"Oh, I'm fine, just fine. And yourself?"
"Same as always." Jack fumbled with the phone cord as he thought of what to say. "Listen, I have 2 tickets to a Lakers game tomorrow night and I was wondering if you might like to go with me?" He waited hopefully.
Janet paused for a minute as she pondered his offer. "Sure Jack, that sounds like fun." She said with a smile.
"Great! Meet me at my Bistro around 7, ok?"
"Ok, I'll be there."
"See you then! Bye."
"Bye"
-
Jack smiled as he hung up the phone. He looked up toward the sky.
"See Susan, I told you I could do it." He whispered.
-
Janet smiled to herself. She looked toward the sky and raised a clinched fist.
"Not gonna get to me now, are ya David!" She yelled proudly as she made her way upstairs to bed.

Survivor-Destiney's Child
Now that you're out of my life
I'm so much better
You thought that I'd be weak without you
But I'm stronger
You thought that I'd be broke without you
But I'm richer
You thought that I'd be sad without you
I laugh harder
You thought I wouldn't grow without you
Now I'm wiser
Though that I'd be helpless without you
But I'm smarter
You thought that I'd be stressed without you
But I'm chillin'
You thought I wouldn't sell without you
Sold 9 million
I'm a survivor (What)
I'm not gon give up (What?

I'm gon work harder (What)
I'm a survivor (What)
I'm gonna make it (What)

Thought I couldn't breathe without

You thought I couldn't see without you
Perfect vision
You thought I couldn't last without you
But I'm lastin'
You thought that I would die without you
But I'm livin'
Thought that I would fail without you
But I'm on top
Thought it would be over by now
But it won't stop
Thought that I would self destruct
But I'm still here
Even in my years to come
I'm still gon be here
I'm a survivor (What)

I'm wishin' you the best
Pray that you are blessed
Bring much success, no stress, and lots of happiness
(I'm better than that)
I'm not gon blast you on the radio
(I'm better than that)
I'm not gon lie on you and your family
(I'm better than that)
I'm not gon hate on you in the magazines
('m better than that)
I'm not gon compromise my Christianity
(I'm better than that)
You know I'm not gon diss you on the Internet
Cause my mama taught me better than that

(Beyonce)
Oh (oh) oh (oh)...
After of all of the darkness and sadness Soon comes happiness If I surround my self with positive things I'll gain prosperity
