Chapter 108

Gabby

Barrett kills me. He's saying all the right things, all the things I wish my ex-husband would've said. Jeff said a lot, but typically it was with a sneer and the emotion behind it wasn’t loving. He wanted a reaction from me, because he knew he could get one by being mean. It was the worst thing, not to be hit physically, but hurt emotionally every single day by words. But now isn't the time for him to rear his head. This is about us, and everything we're trying to build. They're also the same things I wish Barrett would've said too, so it's time to take this at face value. "You are wise enough for me, and I hope you realize what happened before wasn't exactly just about you. It was me, too."
