I decided to go out and do a little shopping. I went to a few different stores and started to feel a little better. I walked into the grocery store and that's where I saw them, Keith and some woman. They were standing over by the apples looking quite cozy together. I wondered how long this had been going on. I also thought of going over there and causing a scene but it wasn't worth it. My life was damaged enough. We were done and I wanted to stay done. Honestly, he deserves to be happy and I didn't feel the same about him anymore. I didn't understand why but I was done trying to figure things out. I chose to leave. Decided I'd grab some take out to avoid Keith seeing me.

On my way home, Angel called. I decided not to ignore him this time. I wanted to know why he was calling but cut the conversation short.

"Hello?"

"Hey, Stranger."

"Angel, I'm a little busy right now. Can we talk some other time?"

"Yeah, sure."

I didn't give him a chance.

I still wasn't comfortable and was unsure of who to trust. For all I know, they could all be in on setting me up.

A text message came! It was Roberta.

"041390"

I responded

"What's this?

"His code to get into the home office."

I had two more days until my birthday and one chance to get in the house to make sure Frank get what's coming to him.
