That’s the tough decision I suppose.

Do we talk first? Or do we fuck first?

I see her building off in the distance.

I start to smile.

I’m on my way, honey… you better be ready for me…

MILA

“Ward,” I say.

I don’t know what else to say.

He then steps into my dorm and shuts the door behind him.

He’s smiling. His face is big, bright, his eyes are crystal clear.

“Mila,” he says.

“What… what are you doing here?”

“Are you surprised to see me?” Ward asks.

“Of course I am! You’re not supposed to be here!”

“Do you have another guy in your bed already?”

I swallow hard and shake my head. “No, Ward. There is nobody in my bed…”

At least not right now.

And anyway… it’s not your fucking business…

“You can’t be here,” I say. I need to slap myself back into reality. “You’re not supposed to be here.”

“Says who?” Ward asks.

“Says… rehab? You’re supposed to be in rehab, Ward. You’re supposed to be getting clean.”

“Look at me. I am clean.” Ward opens his arms and does a spin. “Look. I haven’t had a drop to drink since that night. I’m good.”

“Ward,” I say. “No. You’re not… good. It’s not that simple.”

He smiles. “I figured you’d say that. You’re in doctor mode now. Which is so sweet. It shows you care about me. I can’t believe I never saw it before. You’re really worried about me, Mila.”

“Ward, you should be worried about yourself,” I say. “Rehab isn’t a two second ordeal. There’s a process to it. You’re probably on the downslide from a detox but it’s not forever. It may come in waves, Ward. That’s why you need to stay there until they-”

“But here I am,” he says, closing in on me. “I broke out of that place. For you.”

“You broke out of rehab,” I whisper.
