Kassie waited impatiently as the person ahead of her in line put their items onto the conveyor belt.

She looked around the store.

She hated this store. The way the employees never talked to you, the kids running around the store without their parents.

And the fact that they didn't have Nutella.

"Hello! How are you?"

Kassie snapped out of her trance.

"Oh, good." She said as she started to put the groceries on the conveyor belt.

She dug into her purse, looking for her wallet.

When she found it, she stood there, waiting for him to finish scanning and bagging the items.

"That will be thirty-six dollars and eighty seven cents."

Kassie sticks her slides her card.

She enters her secret PIN number and its approved.

She takes her groceries and walks out.

*****

She takes her keys out of her purse and unlocks the door.

She opens it and walks to the kitchen.

She puts the bags on the floor.

"Terry?" She yells.

"Shit."

"Terry!" She thought.

She ran into their bedroom.

"W-Who is..."

"It's not what it looks like!"

"Uh huh. Get out."

"Babe-"

"I TOLD YOU TO GET OUT!" Kassie yells.

He's wearing a t shirt and shorts and runs out.

"And you..."

She walks over to the girl in lingerie.

"Thank you!" She says.

"Huh?" Kassie asks.

"He was trying to rape me.."

"What! I can't believe he would do such a thing..." Kassie says.

"I should get going... Can.. I borrow an outfit?" The nervous woman asks.

"Of course." She walks to her closet and takes out a red plaid shirt and some black leggings.

"Here." She hands her the outfit.

"Thank you." She says as she puts it on over her undergarments.

"Can I have a ride?" She asks.

"Of course! One second." Kassie goes into the kitchen and puts the food away.

The woman stands up and looks around.

She finds a camera on a tripod in front of a computer.

"I wonder if she has a YouTube channel..."

"You ready?" Kassie asks.

"Yep."

She follows Kassie to her car.

"Where do you live?"

"916 Meadow Lane."

She drives her there and drops her off.

"Thank you.."

Kassie drives back to her house.

She puts Terry's stuff in a box but she takes all the pictures of her and him and throws them into the fireplace.

"Why would he do such a thing..."

She starts to cry.

"No! Don't cry about him..."

"You don't love him..."

"At least not anymore."

She goes into her room and listens to Melanie Martinez.
