[ch. 3] post-execution, w/ rebecca

[Veronica's in the process of pouring herself a drink in the kitchen when Rebecca walks in.

She pauses, sets down the bottle, and... after a beat:]


Want me to pour one out for you, too?

[Let's cope badly.]

[She takes a seat and presses her face against the counter. She's so tired. Has she ever felt so drained before in her life?

No.]


Do we have the stuff for a gin and tonic? I don't want to be sober today.

God, I hope so.

I don't know, I haven't had the time to drink until today.

[And after what she had to watch? She needs to not be sober for a full day.]

One of my many exes was a bartender.

[She'll get up and start mixing two gin and tonics for them. It's a little clumsy, like she's not used to making drinks. But they're more or less right.]

He moved away and called our relationship a shitshow.

[Rebecca, you're not even drunk yet.]

Here's to the end of this place.

[And then she downs the entire thing in a gulp.]

[Rebecca's love life is an endless string of disasters.]

Tell me about that. Let's think about something else besides this place.

[She makes herself another drink.]

Wow. Really? What an asshole. How old are you anyway?

[It was on her tapestry, but Rebecca can't remember all of them.]

Didn't you have family to stop him from doing that?

[She makes no move to take the drink away from her.

Instead she just waves a hand in a "whatever" sort of manner.]


Don't worry about it. My parents were useless too, all they gave me was anxiety, depression and severe self-esteem issues.
