Soshi could not believe Veronica. What gave her the right to talk to her like that? "No, Veronica, my husband and I had a fight. He wants kids and I don't. Is that okay with you?"
This shut Veronica up. Kids had always been swore topic for her. "I'm sorry, Soshi. I had no idea," she said quietly.
"Well, Veronica, it strikes me as that you are someone who wouldn't want kids either, so I would hope that you would understand," Soshi replied coolly. "Now if you will excuse me, I have somewhere I need to go."
With that Soshi got up and found her belongings. She was about to go out the door when Logan stopped her. "Soshi, you don't have to leave. You can stay here for as long as you want."
"No, Logan, I think I have overstayed my welcome," Soshi said, "or at least in someone's eyes." Soshi looked at Veronica straight on as she said those words and then she left.
Logan turned back to Veronica. "I can't believe that you did that to her." Logan looked at Veronica with disappointment. "What gives you the right to be jealous of her? She never did anything to you."
"You say that she never did anything to me, Logan," Veronica laughed incredulously. "What do you call her telling me that I was white trash? Am I supposed to just erase that from my memory?"
"Veronica, she didn't mean it. She didn't know what she was talking about. I was making an assumption based on false knowledge. Veronica, blame me if you have to."
"Fine, maybe I will," Veronica said exasperatedly. "Sometimes, Logan, you frustrate me. Sometimes you can be so nice and you go back to being a jerk. I don't see how you can be friends with her."
"Well, Veronica look who I am talking to. Can you not see the similarities between you and Soshi? The two of you are so similar with your such appealing personalities and your dedication to commit," Logan said cuttingly.
"If that's the way that you think of me, if you think that I am such big of a bitch as her, then I don't think that I can see you anymore Logan." With that, Veronica picked her coat and left without a moments glance at Logan. If this was how Logan wanted to play the game, then that was how it was going to be.
Logan solemnly closed his eyes. If only he had kept his mouth shut, then he wouldn't be in this situation. Soshi and Veronica meant everything to him. He could not afford to lose both of them.
Soshi walked into her apartment to find Matt on the couch sleeping. She walked over to him and shook him awake. Matt opened his eyes and saw her face and smiled.
"I knew that you would come back," he said as he tried to pull Soshi towards him, but Soshi tensed up instead.
"Matt, I don't want to have kids. I never have and I still don't want to. Kids are disgusting. They poop, pee, drool, and cry. I wouldn't be able to deal with it."
"Soshi, we have move on with our lives. Our work cannot be our entire lives. We need something else, someone else to focus our energy on. We can adopt if you don't want to have a baby. Don't you want someone that will remember you in the world long after we are gone?"
"Matt, the future does not matter right now. All that we need to worry about is the present. Can we please just take it one day at a time?" Soshi pleaded.
"I'm sorry, babe, but I don't think that I can do that," Matt replied dejectedly.
"So is this it? Are we over?" Soshi asked.
"I'm afraid so, babe. I can't do this anymore. I don't think that I can make you happy anymore and I don't think that you make me happy anymore either."
"But, honey, that's not fair. I love you. I love you so much. Why can't it be enough?"
"Sometimes, love isn't enough. Trust me, babe, I will always love you."
Soshi moved away from Logan. "I guess this means that we are over," she said as tears started to stroll down her cheeks. "I'll send someone to get my stuff later."
Soshi walked out the apartment with one destination in mind. She was going to get very drunk.
Veronica walked into the bar. After another fight with Logan, she could defintielly use a strong drink. However, Veronica was surprised to see who she found sitting at the bar, looking extremely drunk. There was Soshi. God, Veronica though, could her life get any worse.
"Hey, Soshi, are you doing okay?" Veronica asked her as she went over to her.
"Veronica!" Soshi yelled as she jumped into Veronica's arms. "I'm so happy to see you. How's my favorite girlfriend?"
"I'm doing great!"Soshi yelled. "Actually, I get hot, Veronica. Do you think that it is particularly hot in here?"
"Not really, Soshi, but you know that everyone's body temperature . . ." Veronica started to say but she was cut off as Soshi took off her shirt to reveal her trim stomach and big breasts.
Suddenly, there was uproar at the bar as all heads in the bar turned look at Soshi's breasts. With that, Veronica grabbed her shirt and led Soshi out of the bar.
"Soshi, you are coming home with me," Veronica said as she placed Soshi in the passenger seat. "Please try to not to throw up in my car."
But Veronica said that a little too late and before she knew it there was throw up all over the leather seat. So much for my drink, Veronica thought. She would have to take Soshi home with her. She did not think that Logan would like to see Soshi like this.
Could my day get any worse, Veronica thought to herself as she looked at Soshi fast asleep in the passenger seat as she drove home.
