Jessica returned back to her house, she was a mess, been crying the whole time she was walking, trying to avoid looking at other people, she went straight into her bedroom and lied down.

*So that's it? We're done?*

Jessica's phone started buzzing, she immediately checked it.

*That's it.*

Susan felt her heart breaking into million pieces the minute she read the reply.

*So you agree?*

*I do*

*Good.*

*Goodnight, I love you*

*I love u too, goodnight*

Jessica closed the phone and immediately she burst out in tears, neither one of them wanted the end but yet they were both too proud to make the first move. All Susan wanted was to hear her lover apology as for Jessica she knew that it wasn't something she did furthermore she couldn't be the one to say sorry.

Susan's phone rung again, she reached for it from the nightstand

*You're all I'm thinking of, goodnight again*

Susan opened the text but she never replied...

Jessica woke up the next morning feeling a terrible knot on her stomach, she was feeling so tired but yet didn't know if it was her soul or body, maybe both she thought. She stood up and walked into her kitchen to make herself some coffee, wondering what Susan is doing.

<<She's probably off to work by now>> Jessica thought as she was drinking her coffee, looking out of the window, it was such a beautiful day but yet she didn't want to do anything except getting back to bed.--

"You'll go stand next to her, Susan" The director commanded but Susan was lost in her own world. "Susan?" he shouted again but no reply came from her, "Susan!" he yelled, 'waking' her up.

"What?" Susan asked and looked at him

"What's wrong with you? Are you alright?"

"Yeah, yeah, I'm fine"

"Go stand next to her," he said, pointing at Susan's co-star. "Where's your script?" he asked

"Oh, I... I forgot it home"

"Okay, ten minutes brake everyone" he shouted and with that Susan walked down from the stage and took a seat. The director approached her, worried, "Susan? You're sure you're alright?"

"Yeah, I'm fine, I'm just a little tired, I didn't sleep last night"

"But you know, it's almost a week before the premiere, I want you to be concentrate on this, mind and soul"

"I am, honestly..."

"I know you are... Look, if you need to take off just for today you can leave, I'll tell them you're sick"

"You'd do that for me?"

"I can see how tiring this is for you, you deserve a day off"

Susan smiled, "Thanks, I appreciate that"

"Come on, go get your things and leave, but I want you to be more energetic tomorrow"

"I will..." Susan replied and left.

Jessica was already wasted when she heard someone knocking on her door, immediately her heart started racing, thinking that it was Susan, she rushed to answer. The minute she saw her former lover outside, she felt her knees getting weaker.

Susan lowered her sight, avoiding to look at her, thinking that it would make things easier. They sat in awkward silence for several minutes until Susan talked, "I..." she started and cleared her throat, "I forgot my script here"

Jessica tilted her head to the side and sighed. She chuckled at herself for thinking that Susan was back because she wanted to work things out. "Yeah you did"

"Are you gonna bring it to me or should I come in?"

"You wanna come in?"

Susan thought about it for a minute, "I... I just want the script"

"Then go get it, it's inside," Jessica said and opened the door, allowing the other woman to walk inside.

"Okay..." Susan replied and walked into the bedroom, she returned back holding her script, along with a few things that were hers, finding Jessica sitting on the couch, smoking.

"Thanks..." she said and stopped in front of Jessica.

"Don't mention it." Jessica said and took a sip from her drink, she looked at Susan who was just staring at her, "You want something else?"

"No..." Susan answered and walked to the door, "Yes..." she added and returned back in front of her, "What are you doing?"

"What does it look like I'm doing?"

"You know what time it is?"

"Three?"

"And you're drinking?"

"Jesus, why do you care?"

"Because I'm a human being"

"What do you want from me?"

"To put yourself together, that's what I want"

"Why?"

"Because I care about you..."

"Now you care..." Jessica chuckled, "Okay..."

"You know what, no, I'm not gonna do this again"

"Do what again?"

"This... feel sorry for you and run after you like I always do"

"So let me get this straight, when you said how much you cared about me, it was all because you were feeling sorry for me?"

"Honestly yeah, cause I know if it wasn't me you would've ended up being a drunk!"

"Well, I don't want your pity! I never did!"

"You're pathetic..."

"And you're a liar..."

Susan looked at her, her anger was evident, "And you're just a selfish bitch who only criticizes the people around you, you're so proud that you won't even see the things you do wrong"

"And where was I wrong?"

"See, you can't even remember"

"No, tell me"

"What for? We're done"

"Oh, hell we are"

"You know what? I was so stupid to think you could ever change!"

"Of course you were!"

Susan looked at her one final time before storming out of Jessica's apartment. As for Jessica, she looked around at her empty apartment, trying really hard to keep herself together, eventually, she stood up, wore her jacket and left.

Jessica was walking down the streets, she would give anything to just disappear, couldn't believe how she and Susan ended up like this, she entered the building.

Susan was now sitting on her couch, reading her script, music was playing in the background, anything to make her relax and forget about everything that has happened, she heard a soft knock on her door and took a minute, finally, she stood up and opened the door.

Jessica: "Hi"                                             Susan: "Hi" 

"What are you doing here?"

---

"I really need someone right now..." Jessica said while walking inside her friend's house, "If it's not a good time I can leave"

"What's going on?" Sarah asked worried, seeing her friend like that was breaking her heart.

"I... Um..." Jessica said looking around, finally, she stared at her friend, "I think Susan and I broke up"

"What is that mean? You think? You don't know?"

"No, I know... We broke up"

"Why?!"

----

"I read that your premiere is next week so I wanted to congratulate you"

"You know you could just text me..."

"I know but... I wanted to see you too..."

Susan chuckled, "Jesus, Jonathan, come in"
