Oh thank God! I thought you'd never speak to me again.

And I wouldn't have if I hadn't listened to your last message.

I'm so, so sorry. I really am. As I said, I got into a fight with my brother and I was so pissed off, I took that out on you and that's not fair. You didn't deserve that.

Gracie:

I'm sorry too.

I was too wrapped up in my own problems that I didn't care about YOURS.

If you don't mind me asking, what happened between you and your brother?

Cory Walker:

Just a fight. Don't want to get into the details at the moment.

Wbu? What happened that day at work?

Gracie:
Sent 7:15pm

One of my co-workers have been bullying me. The others have been really sweet, but there's one that's a total bitch to me. I didn't even do anything wrong to deserve it. It's like she's being a bitch for no reason.

I'm sorry.

I'm just venting.

Cory Walker:
Sent 7:17pm

Shit. No wonder why you wanted to relax. I get that now.

And don't be sorry. Vent away! Everything you say to me will stay between us.

Gracie:

Ditto. Text ya later.

Peace out!
