Sarah was getting better and able to walk. Once she was fully healed, she decided to find a job. The diner in the city, near Arthur's apartment was hiring. So she applied, and right after the interview, she got the job. It was fun working. She met new people and even made a new friend named Emily. She was a happy young woman. Her hair was blond with blue and pink highlights. She looked like the character Enid from the Wednesday show.

They girls got along so well that they became best friends. They exchanged numbers and hung out on their days off or after work. Emily was the same age as Sarah and still lived with her parents too.

One night, Sarah was working the late shift when Emily came in.

"I thought you had the night off?" Sarah said. It was slow and barely any customers in the diner.

"I did, but apparently Annie called in. And now I took her shift since I heard you were working." Emily explained.

"That girl calls in a lot," Sarah sighed.

"Agreed. Mrs Seek will have a talk with her soon though."

"I hope so, but I understand if she can't because we are short staffed."

While Emily went to clock in, Sarah was making the coffee when she noticed a familiar face coming to the door. She realized it was Arthur. He was soaking wet since it was down pouring outside. He then sat down in a booth and dropped his head down sadly.

Sarah was wondering what was wrong seeing how sad he looked. Soon Emily came to her smirking, "whatcha looking at?"

Sarah jumped and turned to her. "No one...it's just...kinda my boyfriend."

"Kinda your boyfriend?" Emily raised a brow.

"It's complicated. Because...it's a long story."

"You can shorten it," Emily shrugged.

Sarah sighed, "alright....when I was...younger...a teenager...9 years ago, I fell for one of his brothers. He was older than me. Older than 18 and well we fooled around...we didn't do the whole thing, but after that we didn't do it again until later this year...I was falling for him...but before that, I was in a relationship with him," she nodded her head to Arthur, "but I sensed he didn't truly loved me, I found him talking to his therapist who I felt he was cheating with, that's when his brother and I slept with each other, and ever since then, he started having a secret relationship behind everyone...but soon I was scared and knew my father, mother, and everyone else will know. So I told my dad about it...so that's why it's complicated. We can't talk or see each other for awhile. Especially his brother."

Emily felt bad for her, but also surprised. Maybe because she had. A complicated love life crisis. "Sounds like a love triangle. I mean that is if you love your kinda boyfriend."

"I do. I think still have feelings for Buggy, his brother, but I still have love for Arthur even though he could've been cheating."

"He doesn't look like a type of guy to cheat on his girl." Emily pointed out, "who was his therapist?"

"Harleen Quinnzel."

"Oh good god," Emily's eyes widened. She must've known her. "That woman? She manipulates men. She is just obsessed with your boyfriend. But she is like that with any guy."

"Yeah, my father warns Arthur about her, but Arthur does these weird excuses to just see her. She doesn't like me."

"Oh believe me, Sarah. She doesn't. What I mean is, she doesn't like any girl that is with a man she wants." Emily explained crossing her arms.

They both stayed silent until Sarah spoke, "could you help him please? Take his order or whatever he needs?"

"You sure? You don't want to see him?"

Sarah slowly shook her head sadly. Emily then nodded.

"I will, girl." Emily went to Arthur's table, "his, sorry for keeping you waiting, what can I start with you today?"

Arthur lifted his head and that's when she noticed a black eye on his face. He looked like he had been in a fight. Sarah noticed and covered her mouth looking so shocked. She knew he always had fights, but who caused this?

"Oh dear, sir, what happened?" Emily asked.

"...I...uh...just had a little fight...with a ex old friend." Arthur explained.

"I'm sorry." Emily felt bad for him now, "well...would you like anything? I can even get an ice pack for you."

"Yeah...could you? And just some coffee."

"Of course," Emily smiled and walked back.

Sarah started making an ice pack for Arthur while Emily poured him so coffee and grabbed the creamer. After Emily gave him the coffee, Sarah came to him shyly.

Arthur lifted his head and stopped seeing Sarah. H didn't know she worked here. "Oh...well, I can just take that a just..."

"Please don't leave," she begged when was trying to leave.

Arthur sighed and sat back down. She handed him the ice pack and he placed it on his bruise eye.

"What...happened to you?" She asked.

"Nothing...I just had a fight..."

"Who hurt you?"

"Just an ex friend..."

"....," Sarah reached her hand to hold his, but he jerked away. She looked down sadly, "...I'm sorry...," she turned and walked back into the kitchen.

After his whole visit, he left the diner and left Emily a tip. He didn't ask about Sarah if he upset her or if she was ok. He just left. Sarah was so hurt. He obviously didn't care anymore. After her shift, she and Emily closed up and went home. She didn't talk, she was too hurt. After Emily got home, Sarah went to Arthur's apartment.

Arthur got into his apartment and jumped seeing Harleen sitting on his bed. "Hello, Puddin'."

"What are you doing here? Get out." Arthur demanded.

"Awe, please I want to apologize. I just got upset."

"I didn't want to see you and came out of nowhere and punched me. Please get out! Leave!!" Arthur snapped.

Harleen crossed her legs and frowned staying in her spot. "No."

"Don't make me. I can be rough with women!" Arthur grabbed her arm and roughly yanked her off the bed and pushed her out the bedroom. "Get out!"

Harleen crossed her arms standing her ground not moving. Arthur frowned and went to the front door and opened it, before he could yell he stopped and saw Sarah standing there.

"Oh so your pathetic sl*t of your sister is here." Harleen frowned.

"I SAID LEAVE, DAMN IT!" Arthur turned and yelled at Harleen.

Harleen frowned and stormed out after roughly bumping into Sarah. Sarah slammed into the wall and started to tear up. Arthur looked at her, "...you shouldn't be here..."

"....you don't care...is it because of me and Buggy?"

Arthur dropped his head down refusing to answer.

"Arthur I apologized! We weren't together, but yes I should've told you. You hurt me."

"Stop..."

"Arthur, please I still care about you. I still love you..."

"WELL I DON'T! Fucking go back to my pathetic big nose brother! Harleen and I are trying to work things out."

"....but Dad said—"

"Fuck dad! I am don't with mom and dad. They don't care obviously. You don't care! Only Harleen does."

"...I do care!!! I am sorry."

"...no you're not. Now do me a favor and...stay the hell away from me." He slammed the door in her face.

Sarah dropped her head down and broke down. She walked home. She finally got home and Mr Gold was still awake in his den and noticed Sarah coming in and she was still crying. She told him everything and now he felt bad for her. He was even hurt for what Arthur said about his own family.

"I want to work it out...I want another chance. But he just threw it away. I gave him a chance. He never gave me one."

"I know, dearie. I know." Mr Gold was hurt also. He held her tightly and kissed her ontop of her head.
