She fakes smiles, grabs her bag and walks out the door of the cute café after she's done with her shift
She heads to the gym and rages at the weights almost like punishing herself or taking it out on the punching bag.
She leaves and heads home.
At home theres a family dinner. Everyone is already at the table, talking. she puts her bags down and sits to join them but as they talk and laugh she still zones out.
Finally she goes to bed and lays her head down.
