Two hours later, I received a call from Liam.
"Are you still a man? How badly did you bully Joanna? She ran out alone at night, and you're not worried?"
Liam berated me loudly.
"Isn't she with you? Why should I worry?"
I retorted and hung up, then resumed chatting with a few friends on the forum.
They all thought I could get back into the industry. With my talent, I could keep up with the trends.
I made up my mind to start living for myself.
Not long after.
I heard the door open, probably Joanna coming back, but I didn't bother to check and continued chatting with my friends.
One of my friends, John Miller, worked at a top gaming company and wanted to invite me to be a lead artist.
So when he heard I was back, he immediately got me an interview opportunity with his boss.
I readily agreed and decided to go for the interview the next day.
The next day.
I didn't get up to make breakfast for Joanna as usual. I slept until past nine, made myself a sandwich, and had some milk and juice.
In the past, I had to cater to Joanna's taste, making different dishes to please her.
