“I don’t know anymore.” Florence said brushing her hair back with her hand and slumping on the bed.

“What are you thinking?” Dan asked.

“I was right.”

“About what?”

“That I wouldn’t be free after Gav went to prison, I told you his friends would find me. I shouldn’t have told you, I should’ve just left it.”

“And still get abused?”

“It’s better than running away; I don’t see a plan appearing anywhere.”

“So you’d rather get beaten up, shot, or anything than living and running. You’d rather be with him than with me?”

“Daniel you know the answer, at least you’d be safe.”

“I can’t believe I’m listening to this…”

“I don’t love him, I never did but if you’re safe then that’d make life easier.”

“For me, not you!”

“Look, I am not safe and because of that, neither are you, dad or Daisy and the rest of a long list of people, that doesn’t…” She stopped to compose herself “...it’s because of me and that’s hard. It wouldn’t have happened if I didn’t call you, I should’ve just…”

“You did the right thing!”

“Right, I get slapped and shot.”

“Don’t bring it up, I was aiming for Karmin.”

“Wait you slapped her?” Her dad butted in.

“Dad, leave it. I’m sorry okay, for bringing you into this.”

“Don’t be, if you hadn’t called me then we wouldn’t be engaged, just shy and secretly in love.”

“I do regret calling you and I hope one day I don’t have to regret it, but that’s not today, I’m sorry.”

“You have always worn your flaws upon your sleeves.” He replied.
