There was radio silence coming from Aella ever since she left Mike's house that night. They hadn't spoken in a few, and every time she drove past his house to and from work, she saw Diana's car in the driveway.

She tried to get him off of her mind. She'd spend more time with Gavin, standing by his desk at work and chatting in the break room before she was called off to help someone new.

Gavin was a good guy. Even if he was really bold, he never did anything she didn't want to do. She'd been over for movie nights a couple of times, and they'd gone to Sparky's on occasion after work.

He was sweet, but he wasn't Mike. And Aella didn't realize that— or more, come to terms with that— because she refused to trail behind Mike for the rest of her life, waiting for him to turn around and forget Diana even exists so his attention would be on her.

Mike was the opposite. Everything reminded him of Aella, his entire home. Abby slightly did as well. Even though she hadn't been over as much recently, Abby kept the flood of 'family' drawings, even going as far as adding a baby in the picture and fawning over it. She wouldn't tell him who it was.
