Chases POV:

Blaire: "Cole! We are struggling with money? Can't you get a job? Any job?"
Chase: "nobody will hire me?? It's Christmas in a few days??"
Blaire: "you've been sitting here doing absolutely nothing for a month. Get job, with the baby only a couple months away. We need a stable income"

Yeah, so it's been a month now. Blaire took me back. We are... happy... I think?

After she calmed down a bit that day she told me it was okay and we all
Make mistakes.

I still feel terrible though because it wasn't a mistake. A mistake is when you accidentally do something. This wasn't an accident.

We are over it now.

With Christmas right around the corner, I need to do something. Something special. But I'm broke. I don't have a job.

The only person who would ever hire me is... you know... her...

I don't like to say her name. Not because she did anything wrong, just because it hurts me still.

I don't like to think about her.

When I take walks, I look around at all the happy couples holding hands and smiling and I feel so alone. I shouldn't obviously because I have a wife. But I do.

These past couple of weeks have been tough. I've got to admit.
But my therapist has helped me a lot.

I didn't need a therapist for a long time, but after everything that happened with me and... you know... I needed one

Blaire: "ok you know what? Im calling your therapist right now and canceling your sessions"

What?? Why??

Chase: "blaire please don't! I need her!"

She picked up the phone

Blaire: "if you can't get a job then I'm canceling. First of all, you don't need therapy. You are going through nothing. Second, it's expensive. Money we don't have"

I do need a therapist...

Chase: "please don't Blaire, you know I need one"
Blaire: "for what?? What could you possibly need a therapist for?!"
Chase: "I have ptsd? Survivors guilt? Abandonment issues? Panic attacks?"

...

Chase: "suicidal tendencies..."

She rolled her eyes

Blaire: "whatever, you don't need a therapist for that"
She laughed

I don't understand what's funny

Chase: "Il make up the money! Il get a job"
Blaire: "fine. You have 2 days to find a job or I will cancel your sessions"

2 days?? It's Christmas break?? I can't get a job in 2 days?

Chase: "but Blaire-"
Blaire: "no buts"

She walked away

Looks like I'm getting a job at Starbucks or something, it's literally the only thing opened

Charlis POV:

Alexander: "CHARLI! MAKE DINNER"
