Ella followed Chelsea's gaze to her legs and noticed again the awkwardness. She watched as Chelsea lifted her foot and it just dropped to the ground, like dead weight. Ella looked back at Chelsea, questions in her eyes. "Oh God, honey, I'm so sorry! What happened?" Ella held up a hand, stopping herself. "That is if you don't mind talking about it. I don't want to dredge up painful memories."
At Chelsea's last question, Ella laughed bitterly. "I surely wish I knew. Honey, we're gonna get along great, I think. I just found my fiance was cheating on me with my best friend. So I feel your pain!"
