Present Day:
Character POV: David
I hear the line click dead and slip my phone into my back pocket as I stare at the pad of paper. I took a pencil and shaded it in, and I see the name written on the pad. "Ariadne." My stomach turns into a block of cement in my body. I remember her telling me vague details about her girlfriend, about that short-lived relationship that had both of them acting crazy. I'd love nothing more than to charge out of this house right now and find this woman and give her a stern talking to, reminding her that she has no right to be in Roxanne's life any longer. Hell, I'd bet that the reason Roxy's been in and out of sobriety has something to do with this woman showing up. But I can't do anything. Not yet. But if Roxy keeps sliding down the wrong path, I'll have to. For now, I resign myself to wait.
