Three months later

frank sat at the table staring at the papers the pen in his hand tapping away on the wood he huffed and signed his name and stood up he grabbed his phone and called Gerard
"hello?" Gerard's voice said at the other end
"it's me I've signed the papers I'm picking jay up this Saturday since it's my weekend with him, I'm going to the pawn store to hand in my wedding ring and spend it on him that okay?" Frank said in one long sentence
"sure okay send the papers and it'll be fine" Gerard said frank could here Jason crying in the background
"what's wrong with him! Is he okay!" Frank said in a worried voice
"just shut his finger in the door I gotta go" Gerard hurried hanging up
frank sighed at the dial tone the place was so quiet since they left, frank stopped the drinking so he wouldn't lash out on his son, social services came a paroled him for a month for abuse purposes, frank walked back over to the table a put the divorce papers in the brown envelope, he got his shoes on an walked down to the store he walked in and got a pack of cigarettes, he went to the pawn shop and walked to the front counter
"hey man how much is this worth?"
The dude looked at his examining it hard
"well the condition is pretty good, I'd say about two hundred bucks"
"serious?" Frank was gob smacked
"here" the dude bend down a opened a black metal box, he opened it and counted the notes an handed franks the money
"thanks dude" frank smiled stuffing the money in his pocket walking out he remember he had to drop off the envelope he walked over to the hall to the front desk
"hey I uh have to see my lawyer" frank smiled
"sure he's in room 72 top floor"
"okay thanks" frank smiled




once all franks erins were done he head home he stopped in the coffee shops first and ordered a honey ice tea he sat in a booth he scanned his phone before he felt somebody's presents
he looked up to see a man smiling sitting opposite him
"can I help you?" Frank asked
"You seemed upset" the man spoke
"well I've just sent off my divorce papers and I like in a two bedroom apartment alone" frank mumbled
"well maybe we could make it less lonely together" the man spoke touching frank hand making him blush
"I'm Brett" the man spoke
"frank" he smiled at Brett blushing badly
"so Frankie tell me about yourself?" Brett said circling around franks hand
"well I was married for two years and a few months ago we adopted our son Jason he's three years old, I got 50/50 custody on him a few weeks ago and I work in an office with 20 other men which is a shitty job but its good pay" frank huffed
"why'd you get divorced?" brett asked
"my husband cheated on me with four other men for the past year"
brett stopped moving his hand and locked his fingers with franks stroking the top of his and with his thumb
"sorry to here that" he said sympathetically
"its fine we were having problems anyway thing is he was planning on leaving me months before he even told me"
"do you still love him" brett said it wasn't a question
"no." frank said bluntly
"hey I have somethings that might take your mind off of things how about we finish our drinks and head to you place?" brett winked
frank nodded and downed his drink he grabbed bretts hand pulling him out the coffee shop they walked down the street till they got to franks apaerment
