I mean, even if he did call, what the f*ck did he want me to say? “It’s okay that you jerked me around and treated me like sh*t. Now that I’ve received this enormous bouquet of seasonal flowers I am beginning to see you in a different light. Suddenly the past is growing hazy.

So if you want to come by for some coffee or a drink at your convenience I would love to say hello and give you a blowjob!”

All teenagers knew this was true. The process of growing up was nothing more than figuring out what doors hadn’t yet been slammed in your face.

That was why she’d been so eager to grow up, until she got to adolescence and hit a big, fat wall of reality. As it turned out, she couldn’t have anything she wanted.
