Roses and Ruin

At the award ceremony, my fiance, Allen Walter, pulled his mistress on stage and publicly announced their relationship when he presented me with an award..

"Out with the old, in with the new. Just a man," I shrugged.

My parents were furious.

"Pull our investments and end all cooperation," they said furiously.

My sister chimed in, "We'll retrieve the copyright. I would rather let it sit idle than sell it to them!"

Allen panicked and came to apologize, but I waved him off dismissively.

"Someone like you is not even worth talking to."
