I couldn’t believe Molly hadn’t even bothered to come see me after Eva’s sudden appearance. Due to the terrible timing the last time I saw her, she probably thought I had been making out with Eva, but that was no excuse to avoid me or keep my son away from me.
I had so much I wanted to talk to her about, but she appeared to have dropped me. The days dragged on without visits from her and Scout.
She and my son had been the only constants in my life these past few months, and I’d learned to lean on her––perhaps too much. Now that she was absent, it was like an aching hole had started burning in my chest.
Eva flitted around my room as if she owned the place. She was constantly barking orders into her cell phone, fixing her makeup, or watching herself on the entertainment program
