A New Beginning

"WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU JUST SAY"

"Mrs. McCool watch what you say in my office"

Oh, shit I said that out loud. "I am sorry sir I just don't understand what happened. I have the best number than anyone else in this company and between all of my accounts with the Funeral Homes they have all been happy with who has been hired and the production of all the agents. My team has exceeded everyone expectations, and last month you called me and stated how happy you were as well as the executives on how everything has been handled."

"You are correct Mrs. McCool however we need someone local who is able to handle all the day to day activities and not have to worry about booking another flight for you to come out."

I am trying not to completely breakdown at this moment I have never been fired before and I do not want this to be the first I love my job and the staff and I work so well together. "Well sir I am able to relocate to Seattle if that make it easier for the board and yourself, I have no problem of that anymore. Please don't let me go I have worked very hard for us to be productive as a unit."

" I am so sorry Mrs. McCool, but the board has spoken, and we are asking you to turn in your license."

I do not think I have ever been actually speechless in my life. Why is everything just falling apart all of a sudden? I get up and hand him my license and just walk out the office completely bypassing the driver and just take a taxi and head back to my hotel room. I get on the next available flight home and mull over what I am coming home to when I land. On the plane its like I have a revelation its time for me to move on get out of the big city and just head further South to a small town I have no ties to and just start fresh.

I get to my house and see that Mark has already packed all of my stuff and its in a pod thinking to myself you have got to be shitting me not even 24 hours and now I am getting kicked out of our home. I see Mark and Alysa sitting on the swing that is on the porch just all nuzzled together and kissy faces to each other ugh they make me sick can't even wait for me to do what I need to do before flaunting their new relationship all in my face.

"Oh Hannah I see that your back Alysa has helped pack all of your stuff, and we have loaded everything there for you."

"Well how sweet of her to move all of my stuff out of OUR house without even consulting me on what is actually going on"

"We told you the other day we are not working anymore it's time to move on"

"Move on MOVE ON it's not like you have given me any time to try to figure what this is all about, you leave me in the house alone, I had an emergency with the executives that I had to handle"

"YOU SEE HANNAH THAT'S JUST IT they call you and you just up and left not even thinking about me"

"THINKING ABOUT YOU ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME, YOU HAVE SLEPT WITH MY EX BF AS WELL AS SOMEONE WHO I THOUGHT OF AS A SISTER. What would you like me to do you LEFT, and I was not just going to sit here and just wait for you."

" I am sorry Hannah" Alysa states

"bitch you shut up you slept with my husband you have no right to say a fucking thing to me ever again" I cut her off so quick you would I just slapped her with her mouth wide open and looked like I ran over her puppy.

"You are not sorry neither of you are just have your attorney call me, and we will get this shit over with I will call you and give you an address whenever I settle"

I took the pod (such a stupid name) to a storage unit and went to check into a hotel to figure what my next move will be. I am looking at my bank account and savings knowing that at least half of my money is going to that prick and hussy that I have worked so hard for. It's time to start over new state new life, but where do I go. My parents told me I was from Louisiana as well our family maybe that will be a good place to try to settle down but where. I open a new window on my computer and google small cities in Louisiana I do not want big city Nashville is big enough I want small town and quiet. Oh, fuck it tomorrow I'll just pack my SUV up and just head south and stop where ever I feel actually feels like home.

Morning comes around I go down to the lobby and get a cup of coffee and head to the storage unit to get as much close as possible and will get it shipped to where I decide to stay. Asshole didn't even fold my clothes. I go to another box "OH HELL NO BITCH CUT HOLES IN ALL OF MY CLOTHES." I have now officially broken down I can't take it anymore now more than ever determination on my face I need to leave. The trip was boring but what did I expect no clue where I was going just went with my gut. Been on the road for over 7 hours I needed to stop for gas, pulled of the exit and found myself in Winnsboro Louisiana. The town looks like its one of those towns that everyone know everyone and just a friendly vibe. I ask the clerk where the nearest hotel is and get directions driving slowly taking in all the sites and a sense of calm and it feels like I am home.
