The divorce had been a hard one. The proceedings themselves went smoothly without bitter arguing over who got what, but it was the emotional damage that got her. Leslie's ex-husband had had an affair, and when he came clean about it, Leslie immediately filed for divorce. She was a proud woman and even though her ex had been remorseful and wanted to work things out, she knew she would never forgive him or trust him again. She also really hated lies. Her husband had kept the affair a secret for months. She had been a total emotional wreck, but instead of taking personal time off, she threw herself into work to keep herself busy and to distract her from her emotions until she got home at night.
She had taken a few days off when she had to meet with her ex and lawyers, but other than that, she'd been at work every day. Today was no different. She'd been at her desk doing paperwork and organizing things for Eric. She grabbed some papers and took them to the copy room and started making copies. Despite her tough exterior and her fighter spirit, she was nursing a shattered heart and only the trained eye could tell she was burying herself in work to keep herself from feeling the full extent of her pain.
