"I fought with Olivia."
Sarah tensed. "Oh no. Did she—?"
"She packed the whole house."
Sarah sat upright. "She what?"
I just shook my head against her. "Took everything and by everything I mean her stupid husband and the kids. Left the keys on the counter. I came home and it was just… silent. And I don't—I can't—" I stopped. Swallowed. "I didn't know where to go."
She pulled me into her lap like we were back in college and I was drunk crying over some asshole who ghosted me after two dates.
"Okay," she whispered. "Okay. I'm here baby. You're safe. Breathe."
I did.
Barely.
Sarah eventually peeled herself off the couch with a soft groan, muttering something about baths and pajamas that would make me feel better. I didn't move.
