No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

If Fanny left too, I'd be out of friends to chat with.

Despite the fact that life is a ceaseless cycle of meeting and parting, even with our parents, friends, or even spouses, I didn't want Fanny to exit my life.

"It's not that, I just want to take a longer break. They suspend me when they feel like it and call me back whenever it suits them. Do they think I'm some easy target?" Fanny's words made me laugh. "Whoa, Dr. Willis getting feisty, planning to give them a taste of their own medicine?"

"Exactly, otherwise they'll keep overlooking me the moment things go south," Fanny was always clear-eyed about life.

That applied to both her career and her love life.

"Aren't you afraid of pushing too hard and them not giving you a second chance?" I asked with a chuckle.

Fanny got me a glass of water, saying, "There are plenty of other places that would kill to have me."
