Bad Luck

"Please don't leave me" she said crying and begging tears going down slowly hands clasped together, knees hitting the rough wood floors beneath her "I've had enough of you and your problems. We're done." Jacob her ex said following with a loud bang from the door.

Sophie was always a quiet person. She kept her thoughts to herself if she knew it wasn't going to help unlike other. She kept putting on a smile even if she wanted to cry on the inside, she was never the type to step out of line or make chaos, she was the complete opposite. Despite all the things about her, she is here thinking about life and why this is happening to her.


The next morning, she woke extremely tired with bad under eyes bags as she was crying herself to sleep as to what happened last night and also had to rush to work this morning. When she arrived at work, she could tell that her boss wasn't in a good mood and worse thing, yet she got called into his office. She wasn't really surprised that he wanted to talk to her as she's been slacking off and just wanted to give a warning or so she thinks. "Yes sir? you wanted to see me" she said in a soft but knowing tone "Yes Mrs. Chambers come in have a seat" she did as she was told watching him seeing that he was holding back the words he wanted to say "I know that you've been working at this company for years and you've helped us through a lot but I'm sorry I'm going to have to let you go'. Instead of losing her temper and making a scene all she did was ask one little question "Why?" she said softly but deep down she wanted to cry.

"Well, I've noticed that you've been slacking off for a couple months or so and it is really affecting us and your performance, and I really cannot let that behavior continue anymore. "Oh" was all she said. She knew she worked her ass off for years and now she's getting fired at her only job. She wasted no time and got up and left the office to go pack her things but before she could leave she was stopped "Wait!, before you leave I wanted to give you this" it was an envelope filled with money as her last pay check. "Thanks" last thing she said before leaving his office not looking back.


After everything that happened instead of saying everything is fine even though it wasn't she went straight home crying just like she did last night. She's been going through a lot this past week and part of her couldn't take it anymore, couldn't like life anymore. She went straight to her apartment's rooftop hesitating but not looking back like her mind was set on it and part of her didn't want anyone to stop her.
