Episode 4
I glanced out at the rain dripping down the window
My emotions were the same as the sky, dark and threatening to unleash
Catherine
You've been in bankruptcy law too long
Catherine
We're not married anymore
Catherine
Which means you're not entitled to anything
Chad
Says the woman who, four years in, still hasn't made a partner
Catherine
*Wow! That was a low blow*
Chad had been made a junior partner in his firm after eighteen months, and never let me forget it
I glanced at Mr. Hottie and discovered he was looking at me, watching me with an intensity that made me squirm in my seat
Catherine
* Was that concern in his face?*
Catherine
* God! I didn't need him to hear me fighting with my a$$hole ex-husband*
Catherine
Chad, I'm sitting on a plane and can't talk
Catherine
We have nothing else to say to each other
I hung up and just stared at my cell
Catherine
* We'd been divorced for almost two years and he was still trying to f*ck with me *
It had been a stupid marriage and the fallout from that hasty mistake still lingered
Yoga breathing wasn't going to calm me down from this one so I had to shift my thoughts
Work would make me focus on something besides my lying, cheating, backstabbing a$$hole of an ex
I pulled up the brief I was writing and got to work while Mr. Hottie read his book
After a few minutes, I got a text from Elaine
Elaine
I saw your name appear. Are you already arrived?
Catherine
Stuck on a connecting flight to Denver that doesn't take off. Storm.
There was a minute's pause, then she wrote again.
Elaine
Remember your primary mission!!
Elaine
Find a hot cowboy and engage in monkey s€x!!!!!
I opened my eyes wide in front of the message in the corner of my PC screen.
Glancing in the direction of Mr. Hottie, he didn't seem to have noticed my friend's risque note.
The font was small, and as close as the seats were, I had to hope it was extremely short-sighted
Catherine
I have too much work to do
Elaine
The famous last words of a woman who desperately needs an org@sm.
Elaine
Chad was an a$$hole with a pencil d!ck.
Elaine
You need to find a man to rock your world
Elaine didn't mince words and that's what I loved about her.
It didn't sweeten the pill.
What she said about my ex's d!ck was probably true.
Unfortunately I was alone with him, so I didn't have many other c0cks to compare it to, but he certainly didn't know how to use it.
As for having my world rocked, I doubted that was going to happen anytime soon
Catherine
* I was too busy *
Catherine
*Work, exercise, work more*
Catherine
* Occasionally , I slept *
As Chad had been kind enough to point me out, I hadn't become a partner
Catherine
*If I wanted to do it, I had to get busy.*
Catherine
S€x won't get me that partnership.
Elaine
You have high priorities, woman, if you think you can't have both.
Elaine
Do you think Mr. Farber doesn't get on with anyone?
I wasn't sure if I should laugh or throw up.
My boss was in his sixties and decidedly unattractive.
Catherine
* As well as a misogynist b@stard *
Elaine
I'm not saying to marry that man
Elaine
Then find another and f*ck him too
