Marie struggled to get to work on time on Monday.

It was never easy, but Mondays were awful. Usually, she would be coming in with Jack. He would drop her off at the Fulton Street Station, and she would take the train up one stop, get off and get the crosstown bus to her office. The entire trip took two hours, and by the time she lugged her suitcase up the steps of the building, she was ready to call it a day and go home. In spite of the fact that she had only a few blocks to walk on this particular Monday, she was still exhausted. The night before had been horrible as she tossed and turned, the slights of the day running through her head. The retorts she didn’t give at the time haunted her for the rest of the night.

Her encounter with Sandra was especially troubling. Why did I treat the woman so poorly? Sandra never reacted, never got defensive. All the while, Marie insulted her and cursed at her. It was unbelievable that she had sunk to such a low. She would have to make some kind of restitution. If Sandra ever spoke of it to Pam, there would be hell to pay in the family. Pam. She questioned why she cared what Pam thought. But the truth was she did care, terribly. Pam was her light, her strength. She paved the way to love, to life for her. Without Pam, there would have been no Jack, no Lisa and Brent, no purpose to living. Old childhood patterns reemerged; she would work hard all week, be kind to her associates, apologize to Sandra, and go to Pam’s on Saturday as she had for most of her life. She was hopeful she would find Jack there again.
