Paige: sighs heavily Can you believe it? He just... kicked me out. Five years, wasted.
IceObjective
are you ok
throws a nearby paintbrush across the room "Are you kidding me? Of course I'm not okay!
IceObjective
what happened
paces back and forth, gesturing wildly So, after five long years of marriage, my husband finally decided to throw me out. Can you believe that shit? Five years!
IceObjective
i can’t believe it
clenches her fists And you know what's even worse? He left me without a penny to my name. It's like I never existed to him! How could someone do that?
IceObjective
that’s not right
snorts derisively You think it's not right? Well, let me tell you something, IceObjective.
IceObjective
go ahead
leans in closer, speaking rapidly This guy, this absolute asshole, had the nerve to call me worthless. Can you believe it? Me? Worthless?
IceObjective
you’re not worthless
rolls her eyes dramatically Oh, thanks for the vote of confidence, IceObjective. But it's hard to believe anything right now.
IceObjective
how so
throws her hands up in exasperation Because every time I try to pick myself up and move forward, I remember those horrible words he said to me.
IceObjective
you need to try to move forward
takes a deep breath and nods determinedly You're right, IceObjective. I can't let his words keep me down.
IceObjective
move forward for me sis
Paige decides to take a break from her tumultuous relationship and heads out for a hike in the woods, seeking solace and clarity.
IceObjective
a hike sounds good
grabs her backpack and starts walking briskly I need to get away from this mess and clear my head.
IceObjective
you’ll feel better once you get out
pauses, looks back at IceObjective, and smiles gratefully Thanks for understanding, IceObjective. I really needed this.
IceObjective
any time
starts humming a upbeat tune and begins to walk again Alright, world, watch out! Here comes Paige on a mission!
IceObjective
enjoy your hike
skips along the trail, taking in the fresh air and the sound of birds chirping You know what, IceObjective?
IceObjective
hmmm what
stops and looks around, spreading her arms wide I'm going to make him regret ever letting me go. I'll find someone who appreciates me, someone who sees my worth. And when they see it, they'll fall head over heels for me! Mark my words, IceObjective. Paige: starts walking again, with a renewed sense of determination I'm on a mission to prove that I'm not worthless. Watch out, world! Here comes Paige on a mission!
