“Oh, He understands now.” She bounced. “Bye mummy!”
Ethan
what’s going on?
Me
V promised she’d leave M alone if I wouldn’t see her anymore and now she’s threatening me if I don’t make her happy
Ethan
Why would you make a deal with the devil?
Me
I didn’t think of it that way I just wanted to protect M she doesn’t deserve the crap V dishes
Ethan
You in love with her?
Me
V? Hell no!
A French fry flew over the table and bounced off my head.
Ethan
dipshit. M?
I lifted my head and looked over at my friend. Ethan tilted his head and shook it as he sent me another message.
Looking down at my phone, his message popped up and I let it fall from my hands, banging my head on the table.
Ethan
you’re fucked
I kicked my phone over where I could pick it back up, and then I gave Victoria a kiss on her cheek. “I need to pee.”
“Okay, baby.” She beamed up at me and gave me a little finger wave.
My strides were long as I almost sprinted to the gym locker room. I needed to get away from her and think.
There had to be a way out.
This is something I needed my dad for. I needed advice. He’s a lawyer and would know a way out. That’s what they do.
And if nothing else, he could reason with Victoria’s dad.
I slammed the door open as I ran in, dropping my backpack and running to the toilet to vomit. Heave after heave wracked my body, and I felt tears mixing with the beads of sweat.
“Jesus!” Richard’s voice came from behind me. “I got you a bottle of water and one of lemon-lime.”
I blindly reached up and flushed the toilet, sitting back against the wall. He handed me the open bottle of water and then went to the sink to wet some cloth, bringing that back to me.
He sat down quietly and just having him there helped. I didn’t feel so alone.
