Elle, I'm tired of leaving threatening messages and I'm tired of following you around and I wish you would pick up the phone.

I'm on my way home. Alice and Rowan said you left for New York City. Business deal, they said. Bull, I say.

Did you know I got laid off today? Something about a drug test I failed. I don't do drugs. That shit isn't free and I'm not rich.

Did you know, did you know, that you're a conniving harlot, and that I know what you've been doing?

Don't count on a restraining order. And stop shitting around with Frederick, I told you, leave him the – alone –
