The Unforgettable Lunch

Every Sunday afternoon, I meet with my friends to catch up on recent events in our lives. This has been a tradition that we have shared for many years now. It started back in college when we shared classes together and we all went out to eat together in between classes and hanged out afterwards. We all had the same major in college so we went to so many school’s struggles together. We all know each other pretty well but Jennifer is my closest friend. This particular day, Jennifer announced that was pregnant which struck me by surprise because she has never mentioned anything to me and we’re really close. I was absolutely thrilled for her but I knew she has been having real issues with her husband lately, at one point, they were not even speaking to each other. As the exciment settled down, I got to talk to her and asked her about how things were going with her husband. And then she dropped the news that she was going to file for divorce because they haven’t been able to resolve their differences. I was shocked and confused at the same time. I wondered about the baby but I didn’t want to ask. I spent the rest of the lunch very confused, concerned and worried about my friend. I left with so many questions and excitement at the same time.
