"I'm sorry", he said when I opened the video call.

"Why?" I asked.

"I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm so so so sorry", Charlie cried.

"Charlie babe it's ok, I promise", I said.

"I feel like I'm fucking up your life and I'm so so sorry", Charlie said.

"No babe it's okay, I promise", I said. "This isn't one of those things where you've done something wrong so I can say it's ok instead of saying you're forgiven", I reassured him.

"I'm still sorry", Charlie said. "I feel like you hate me".

"Hey, of course I don't", I said. "I love you a fucking lot ok?".

"I love you too but what if I lose you?" He said through tears. "I don't wanna lose you".

"Don't worry about that babe", I said. "I'm stuck with you until you're fed up of me".
