Deborah stared at Finn, seemingly emotionless. “There were more pictures. What’s worse, those pictures had Ethan’s home address in them. What you just walked through is going to be Ethan’s reality for the next month at least.” Finn looked at Ethan, but his boyfriend hadn’t moved.
“I knew this would happen,” Deborah bemoaned. “I tried to stop it, and yet…”
“Yeah, this is a real tragedy,” Julian butted in. Deborah turned her harsh eyes towards him. “It’s not that bad! Just tell them what they want to hear and get it over with! It’s like ripping off a Bandaid.”
“You are not a part of this conversation, Mr. Keegan,” said Deborah sharply. “I’ve entrained you and Finn for far too long in Ethan’s life. It’s time that comes to an end. Mr. Phelps, your relationship with Ethan is done.”
