Chapter 20

Torey went for a four hour drive/exploring after her frustrating day with Lori and the other children. She was so relaxed from it that she didn't even think about the day. She just wanted to have some time to herself to really be calm. When she got home, Joc was there and was very angry with her, as they had been invited to an anniversary dinner but had to miss it because Torey had forgotten and not arrived home until two hours after the party started. Joc went on another rampage about how Torey is obsessed with crazy, and told her that she is not that important at her job and that she had a "God complex". He left, and Torey said that she knew this argument would be their last, so I'm guessing they broke up officially. This was interesting, because I thought they had already broken up, and the whole book she talks about how she was not going to end up with him, so I am always wondering when the REAL end of their relationship happens. I think that this time it is the final break up. Once again, this book shows an example of how frustrating and stressful working with certain situations can be, and how sometimes we need to be able to make time for ourselves to relax and not worry about what happened. I hope that my relationship with my significant other will always stay strong, and that he will continue to have an understanding for the emotions that will come home with me (and for me to have that same understanding for him).
