David stared out the window. Honestly, it was for the best that Ella had brought up the divorce herself. He had been planning to end things too.
“It’ll be soon,” he replied, his tone cool and detached.
…
Back at the apartment, Ella and Fiona walked in. Ella immediately flopped onto her soft bed, sinking into the blankets. After letting loose tonight, it was time to get her life back in order.
She grabbed her phone and opened her messaging app. She had two accounts. For the past three years, she’d only used the one called Mrs. Ella Harmon. Now, that account was officially retired.
Ella logged into her other account. As soon as she did, her group chat, “Happy Family,” exploded with notifications.
She tapped it open.
Otis: “Oh my god, Ella’s finally online again!”
Adam: “Welcome home, Ella.”
Wyatt: “Come here, Ella, let me give you a big hug.”
The chat was flooded with confetti emojis and over-the-top celebrations.
Otis: “Remember three years ago, Ella? You fell in love for the first time, said goodbye to Grandpa, and insisted on leaving to find a man. So, Ella, was it fun playing with men?”
Ella replied, “Not fun at all.”
Adam: “Looks like Ella got her heart broken. Hahaha.”
Wyatt: “There’s actually someone out there you can’t handle? Wow.”
Otis: “You guys, stop teasing her. Just think of it as Ella coming down to earth for a love trial. Sorry, I can’t help it, this is too funny. Let me laugh for a bit.”
