Huffing out a dramatic sigh, maybe she should just give up and go home. Perhaps Grams and Auntie Cara would have some insight on the matter. Some ancient wisdom of women who knew better. A drink, a drink would definitely help with that, so as Kieran kicked out the stool, she climbed onto it and quickly ordered a double.

His inquiry as to what was making today a nightmare earned him what would have looked like she was flipping him off, except it was her ring finger, showing off the simple band that bonded her to Asha. Her engagement ring was still obstinately placed on her right hand and refused to take either off for the moment. "Eloped... by accident. Certainly not by choice." It had to have been that stupid pink letter. That was when she remembered the euphoria beginning. Ughhh.

She then lifted her other hand to show the pretty engagement given to her by Gervaise. "Problem was, I was already engaged." Her scotch arrived and she took a large swig of the healthy pour, the burn feeling incredibly relevant at the moment.
