“I’m calling because you sent me a fuckin’ message like that!” How many times does he have to express it?! “Oh, you gonna hold something against me with what I said years a fucking go? Don’t mean it is. I’ve grown up since then. Things have changed and I’m sayin’ now it isn’t a shit hole, because I have things to live for. LA is a shit hole, too. If you wanna look at it that way. Rent $1,000 for a RAT HOLE in LA is pretty shit hole to me.” he laughs, everywhere can be a shit hole if you find all the flaws. “Yeah, whatever. You don’t drive much then. Cause Atlanta is the new LA.” That traffic is just as atrocious. “And that’s why else I don’t like you having Sebastian. You think there’s no gangs, no crime. You could get both of you killed cause you’re living in la la world.” It’s only because of God she HASNT gotten them killed. “Yeah cause look at the way YOU’RE acting right now.” Is she really that blind to how cruel and tucked up she is? “He’s not fucking forced to live here you fuckin’ idiot! He lives here better than he does there! At least he has more family here!” Amy, Gina, his grandma, all of their new church friends, Stuart just an hour away in Indianapolis. “Turn out like me? You’re a BITCH, Erin. That’s what you are. You better watch your back if you know what’s good for you.”

“You’re clearly delusional because all I said in that message was we’re having fun! I want to spend one more day with my son. I’m not asking for a year or twelve for Christ’s sake.” It takes a lot of patience and self-control to refrain from yelling, especially since it’s the only thing that she wants to do. “See? This is how it always is with you. You say one thing and then take it back whenever you change your mind and it no longer fits your narrative. How would I know whether you’ve changed or not? We’re not even friends anymore,” she spits, moving the phone away from her ear and covering the speaker with the palm of her hand. She sniffs quietly, blinking furiously as tears fill her eyes. She can’t let Sebastian see her like this again. She has to pull herself together but . . . It hurts, the realization that they’re no longer as close as they used to be. A piece of her soul will forever be missing. But she doubts he feels the same. He’s replaced her. Can she blame him, though? “I’m not saying L.A. is some sort of heaven on earth.” She takes a deep breath and brings the phone to her ear once more. She won’t say it out loud but she’d prefer to live in a small house in Lafayette with her son than in the most beautiful of West Hollywood apartments or even this huge house in Georgia alone but it’s not up to her. “Well, if you only drive around cornfields in Indiana, yeah . . . Guess the roads are quite busy here in Atlanta.” Shrugging, what’s the point of this idiotic fight anyway? “Have you been drinking or something? Sebastian is safe with me. We can’t go through life, thinking there’s only evil people around us. We can’t live in fear. I don’t own a house in the kind of neighborhood where everyone’s either a drug dealer, a gang member or a prostitute. You can calm down.” She grew up in a bubble, has spent her whole life in one basically. She naively believes that she’s invincible, nothing can touch her. Of course, she’s not oblivious to crime but she’s certain that good things happen to good people and bad things happen to bad people. Isn’t that how the world works? Why would anyone want to harm a woman and a child? Makes no sense to her. She can’t comprehend that some people are just rotten to the very core. “Well, I can say the same about you. Take a look in the mirror, Axl.” Why does he think that he’s better than her? He’s even more messed up. “Oh, I see . . . I’m not good enough because my family is miles away. Is that what you’re trying to say? You know what? I can always pack our bags and organize a little family reunion in Los Angeles. Edan would be so happy to see Sebastian. Maybe we’ll go tonight.” It’s an empty threat, of course. He infuriates her. It’s not her fault that her family lives in California and his is right there in Indiana, ready to support him. “Yeah, I’ll make sure he knows how to treat women with respect.” How to speak to them. She’s gotten used to being called many names but hearing the one she hates the most from Axl’s lips has tears running down her face. She’s been holding back for so long. She just has to break at some point. She quickly wipes them away with her hand but it takes her a moment to speak up again. “Are you really threatening me? Calling me names? The mother of your child? How are you any better than your own father?” And with that she hangs up on him. A chill runs down her spine as his words ring in her head. Her hands are shaking when she places the phone down. They travel to her mouth next, covering it and preventing her from screaming. She squeezes her eyes shut and tries to breathe. He’s insane.
