Happier Without You

"I'm happier without you." That’s what the love of my life, Peter, said to me during the conversation that ended our relationship. I didn’t see it coming, and it left me reeling. What do you do when every plan you’ve made for your life falls apart? I shut down. Life came back to me one heartbeat at a time, starting with destroying a car that didn’t belong to me. Needless to say, I made an enemy in Tammy, one of the cheerleaders. Not only did she hate me, but every one of her friends did too, including my ex’s new girlfriend. While I avoided Tammy’s shots at me, I got to know two people who just showed up in my life: Poe and Cathy. For some reason, they liked me, and Peter wasn’t pleased about that. While trying to save myself from Tammy’s increasing threats, I also had to deal with Peter trying to make me feel guilty for moving on. How do you move on when everyone wants to hold you down?
