Hello everyone! Thank you so much for the all the reviews and a special thank you to the guest/guests and of course I can't forget my faithful reviewers! So as promised here is the next chapter, enjoy!

Over the next few weeks things were good. Kim was busy with Grace setting up their classrooms, Jack and Jerry were busy at the hospital with Jerry finally talking some sense into Jack so now he wasn't working as hard and Brody was working hard on his job but also the situation with Kim and surprisingly they had a better relationship now than when they were married.

Kim and Brody had been separated for about a month and were now meeting to discuss future plans. They met up at another coffee shop between the school and office so it would be fair for both.

When Kim arrived, she was surprised to see Brody already seated. He waved a 'hello' and got up to welcome Kim with a hug, which she gratefully accepted. They ordered and then got down to business.

"So how are you?" Brody asked Kim.

"I'm good but a little exhausted. I have such a hyper class this year", Kim replied with a laugh. "How are you?" She continued.

"I'm good, thanks. So according to my friend we have to answer these questions to see if we are still going to go through with our decision. So are you ready?" Brody asked. Kim smiled and nodded a 'yes' as he continued. "So has anything towards me changed over the past month," Brody asked to Kim, reading the paper.

Kim thought for a second before shaking her head 'no' and giving Brody a guilty look. Brody nodded and said, "Don't worry. I feel the same way," Kim gently smiled as Brody asked the next question. "Reason for divorce? I marked it irreconcilable differences. I didn't feel like putting infidelity because it seems a little harsh sense it didn't get past kissing for both of us ".

"Thank you", Kim whispered gratefully. Brody nodded looking at the paper.

"So financially we only have one joint account so we can go to the bank later and fill out that paperwork. And I also put the house on the market and already have a buyer. I wanted you to meet them first and I thought it would be okay to do that. We could both start over new and split the money", Brody said a little nervous.

Kim took everything and even though she was a little shocked she smiled and said, "That is actually a great idea and I would love to meet them. Thank you for running this by me".

"Of course. It's firstly the right thing but also I feel like you deserve to know. And if I can be honest" Brody started, looking at Kim who nodded him to continue. "I think we are closer now than before. I honestly feel like we are friends".

"Yeah I couldn't agree more", Kim said again.

Brody smiled and nodded in agreement as he flipped through the papers. "So now all you have to do is sign at the dotted lines on the pages that have the stickers on them and we will be done," Brody said handing Kim the pen his pocket.

Kim nodded as she started to sign the papers. Even though this was supposed to be a sadder moment, the both of them felt like this was just the beginning.

After signing everything, Kim handed everything back to Brody who smiled and said, "So I will sign my part when I get back to the office and then turn it in to the lawyer. Also the couple is coming by the house this weekend. Can you make it?" Brody asked putting the paper in his briefcase.

"Um, yeah I think so. What time?" Kim inquired.

"I think one o'clock. I can call you once I get home", Brody said trying to remember.

"Yeah sure, but one works anyways", Kim said looking at her phone.

"Okay, great. See you this weekend", Brody said getting up.

Kim followed as they hug goodbye.

Kim returned to school with a smile on her face and Grace wondered what happened. "Hey Kimmy, how was coffee?" Grace asked.

"It was good. I signed the papers so it's progressing," Kim said calmly

Grace nodded and then asked, "Are you okay?"

Kim paused and then said, "Actually yeah. We realized we are better as friends. We are selling our house and starting fresh".

Grace ran up to hug Kim, so happy her best friend was finally happy. Kim smiled and hugged back, so thankful for Grace. The rest of the day and week went by well as Kim also told Grace not to tell Jerry.

Saturday arrived and Kim was driving back to the house as broad asked her to come early so they could discuss last minute details. Kim arrived 45 minutes early, actually happy about today. She rang the doorbell and instantly Brody answered with a smile. "Hey Kim", he said opening the door wider for Kim to enter.

"Hey Brody. The house looks great by the way", Kim said looking around.

"Thanks, and thank you for coming. I am sure you will love the couple and also I turned in the paperwork and everything so hopefully it should be finalized by Thanksgiving since we decided to split everything in half and take our own possessions ", Brody said happily.

Kim nodded as this last part she was going to do would make it so real. She pulled the ring off her finger and grab Brody's hand to place it in his palm. He was confused at the gesture but knew what it was when he opened his hand. "I don't deserve it, so keep it or sell it. It's your decision," Kim said hugging Brody as he just smiled and returned the hug lovingly.

They had a nice afternoon and Brody was right, Kim loved the couple who is buying the house. They got along great and they didn't over pry in Kim and Brody's life. Everything was finalized and they were scheduled to move in next month. Kim and Brody saw how happy the couple was and it made them realize that they were never that happy and that this was hands-down the best decision for everyone.

Kim returned home with a smile and Grace new that smile but it was also a smile she hasn't seen since the summer. "So Kimmy, I'm assuming everything went well?" Grace asked with a smirk on her face.

"Yeah, everything went great. And the couple is the sweetest people ever," Kim replied joining Grace on the sofa.

Grace nodded and as Kim was reaching for some snacks Grace had out. Grace's mouth dropped as, "ooohhh" came out of her mouth. Kim looked at Grace with a confused expression as Grace just kept looking at Kim's hand. After a few minutes Kim realized it was her ring finger as she retracted her hand and gave a small smile.

"So, it's really over?" Grace asked in a soft tone.

"Yep, it is", Kim replied looking at the ground.

After taking everything in Grace asked, "Do you need help moving stuff?"

Kim smiled and answered, "Yeah, that would be great, thanks Grace. We are starting next weekend".

Grace nodded as they continued on with the night like nothing happened.
