The only thing they can do for Stacie is disappear and the only thing Stacie can do for them is to be a good doormat but how far will they go to break Stacie and does this mean death to? Meanwhile Stacie’s personal life is filled with sneaky men and the women who hate her. All to the point where it messes up her meaning of love as Stacie overlooks the love that’s standing right before her. Will she break a good man and turn him into the rest of the no good she knows or will Darwin stay in hopes that she will finally see what’s really good?
Leslie Meadows the eldest of four was born and raised in Brooklyn New York but now has branched off to live in the state of Georgia. She is a single mother of eight children three girls and five boys. Leslie is now a graduate student studying for her master’s degree in mental health counseling in hopes to always be a help to any who needs her assistance. But long before this Leslie’s rode wasn’t as bright. Leslie was a high school drop out, a two timed teenage mom, homeless twice and suffered from a lot of family ailments which also includes divorce but with persistence Leslie refused to let that be the story she wanted to keep telling and re-entered life filled with faith and guided in trust. So in love she recreates herself and now hopes to inspire others by her works and desires to be the all that we can be.
The elevator door opens as everyone heads in their direction. The office fills with people working for their checks, to pay those bills, and for survival. Even though the divorce settlement was well worth the marriage, the city called her to work and she came to answer due to boredom and depression about the failed marriage. Stacie heads to her desk which is nicely tucked in the
corner of the office. Her plain paper stacked desk awaits her as she approaches. She didn’t have the desire to decorate it with any pictures or art because she wasn’t making the job her life or part of it. It was just something to do until the next idea comes along.
“You didn’t call me back last night.” Raymond startles her as she turns to face him.
“Hey Raymond.” She held her chest taking in a deep breath. “Why are you walking up on me like that?”
“Oh I scared you? Why? What were you thinking about? Sure isn’t me. Why didn’t you call me back last night?”
“I fell asleep.”
His face shows disbelief. “Your company must have been very interesting.” He sat on the edge of her desk.
“What, are you feeling rejected?” Stacie stood with files in her arms.
“Yes. I thought we could start doing more things together.”
“Raymond, please. Did Gibbs kick you to the curb again?” She turns to walk towards her boss’s desk.
Diane Gibbs is Raymond’s main female; his bread and butter, Raymond’s personal banker. Something Stacie would never be. For she could see agreeing to a fifty-fifty arrangement but in their case its ninety-ten with Raymond giving only ten percent to pacify her or for shutting her up and once he’s done, he loses interest, leaving her to pursue his own interest again.
