Life with Kevin Pt. 10

Kevin saw Corey at work again. He thought about returning to the checkout, but he would see Corey more. He would get distracted from bagging or ringing and they’d probably flirt.

The full-time manager asked him if he wanted to go full-time, but declined since he had school. She told him he could only work full-time on weekends. He still declined as he had schoolwork.

The days he did work, he took his lunches with Corey. They talked and went on dates, but Kevin was graduating soon. He would need a full-time. He would work there until he found one. He told Corey and he was sad, but happy, to see him for the time remaining.

It took Kevin a few weeks to find a full-time job in the editing field. He was an editor’s assistant during the week while in college, so the company decided to raise his pay and make him full-time.

Corey was sad to see him go. Kevin’s job was close by, so he could visit Corey for lunch. But Kevin started seeing Corey less and less because of his job. They talked on the phone and texted. Once a month lunch turned into once every other month and then none at all. Kevin became too busy for Corey.

A few years later, Kevin gained more experience and went back to school to get the editor job at his company.

He got the job and decided to break up with Corey as he would have to focus on work at all times.
