he’s crying. it’s a number i don’t recognise because he’s changed phones and ignored me for so long.
i recognise his voice though, as soon as he starts talking through his sobs. he’s not exactly saying sorry. he’s mostly begging for forgiveness.
because after 14 years, it’s dawned on him. what he did. he’s wracked with guilt and he’s paranoid. he wants me to promise not to say anything.
he wants me to tell him he’s a good person.
i sigh. because i really. don’t. have the patience for it.
i got over it several years ago.
and i hang up.
without saying a word.
