Kapitel 22: Drunk Or Blind

Alone in the house and left with nothing to do, Jessica decided to go grocery shopping so she could help Delilah stock up the house before she left for her new job over the weekend.

As she drove out of the house, she thought about Delilah's concern about being alone with Blake after she left and that brought a smile to her lips.

She was really hoping that Blake would be the man to mend Delilah's broken heart and make her believe in love once again. As much as she could tell that there was more to the whole marriage story and the man himself, he seemed like a great person and she liked him.

"You've got to be kidding me!" she exclaimed, the disbelief audible in her voice as her car jolted forward from the impact of a car slamming into hers.

The abrupt collision snapped her from the cocoon of hopeful thoughts, and annoyance flared within her as she pulled her car over by the side of the road, the tires crunching against the gravel.
