Insist he collect his son.
Me:
His dad sounded destroyed.
Alice:
I imagine he is. This is a lot for a parent.
But it’s not your responsibility.
And he’s an active danger to you.
Me:
Sitting here icing my injury.
A partner shouldn’t inflict an injury.
Unless it’s a good sex one, if that’s what you’re into.
See, I’m funny when I’m sad.
Alice:
Yeah, consent needs to be involved.
And even if it is, it shouldn’t be permanently damaging.
Timmy enters the apartment just as my phone starts ringing
It’s Jimmy and Vanya calling again.
He glances over at me and heads straight to the back room as if scared off by my phone’s ringtone.
Me:
His dad sounded like he was dead.
It was very sad.
Alice:
He’s realizing he’s raised a man who is a hazard to society.
And who may never be able to function normally in society.
Me:
Yeah, at least his meth addict sister only hurts herself.
Alice:
Yeah, that’s a lot to take in.
Me:
His sister told me he’s a piece of shit.
