She sits on the couch and begins to weep. Her shoulders convulse violently with each heave and sob. Fear sets in, and she realizes, probably for the first time, that she is leaving everything behind.

A little unhappiness triggers her to turn her world upside down. She ended her job and removed herself from her bank. Everything starts to sink in. She is really pulling the plug on Vanessa St. James. She will no longer reside here. Three thousand or more, miles away, She will exist as Sarah Conrad.
The idea is still foreign to her.

After she has regained her composure, she thinks about how wonderful it will be, to leave Ohio. To set out on uncharted territory. At least to her. She will have the opportunity to make new friends, and work a new job. Maybe she will fall in love again?

She says it out loud, this time to make it seem real. “I am moving to Wyoming!” She spoke, the first words not traversing through her head. Finally she begins to write her roomate, Evelyn a note. Explaining why shes leaving.
