Stanley stopped in his tracks turning around
Jessicasmiled.”Wendy,youtwoaredivorcednow.Areyoustillhungupon Stanley?Wanttotrytowinhimback?”
Wendy stood tall in the corridor her posture straight and unyielding She didn t acknowledge Jessica her eyes clear as ever focused on Stanley s distinguished face
