Kindle Notes & Highlights
Take care of her little boy. Navigate my parents’ grief. Run my restaurant. Get shit done.
Oof
Rhys. Her landlord. The one who evicted her without a second fucking thought.
Ah
It’s too long, and he’s used a touch too much product in an attempt to slick it back, making it appear almost wet.
Ew
“I’m Milo’s legal guardian. It’s all here in writing. Signed.”
Ayo what
But because I was a fucking dick to her sister.
Then how are you her sons legal guardian?
He may only be three, but Milo is an old soul.
Sure
It hurts because I’ll take no pleasure in removing Milo from this place.
Bro
he’s so damn big
Ok elsie we get it hes big pls stop repeating it
You’re a Florida Man if I ever saw one,”
Lol
My words drop off as Rhys tosses a one-hundred-dollar American bill down on the bar and stands in one swift motion.
Fuck your american money youre in canada bitch
When I become Wild Side, everything falls into place.
Oh god what a shit name
I definitely have not been thinking about his head between my legs.
Girl calm down
This is Canada, Rhys. I don’t own a gun. Neither does anyone I know.”
Damn right
If you want to see me fuck someone, the bathroom is right there. Drag me in there right now, and you can watch in the mirror while I bend you over.”
AYO
Nah. Even if we have to kiss, there will be no tongue. It’s completely unnecessary. We can keep it chaste.
Sure
Meow.
Cat?
“What the fuck is that?” “A cat. Her name is Cleocatra.”
Lmaooo
At first, I felt as though Rhys belonged down there, but now…now I’m not so sure.
But like youve barely talked???
Basically, we’d both do anything for him. Including keeping our hands the hell off each other.
But like wouldnt it be better for hi if you were actually together?
His gray suit is immaculate, highlighting the silver flecks in the salt-and-pepper hair near his temples.
Oh
It niggles at me that she’s going through with this thinking I betrayed her, but I push my own discomfort aside.
Yeqh and why tf have you not just talked about that? Theres actually no reason??
And fuck if it doesn’t make me want to look out for her too.
Then do?
So here I am, getting married by a woman who reeks of cigarettes and looks like she’s worn baby oil in the sun for decades. But apparently she’s a registered officiant, so whatever.
Whatever lmao
“I hope he has a huge dick. It makes the dumb shit men do a lot more forgivable.”
AYO DORIS
Then I spiral. Thinking about kissing her. Here. In front of all these people.
Hey so yeah that happens at weddings
“Kill you or fuck you, Tabby?” My voice drops lower. “Oh, I’ve decided.” “Fuck,”
FUUUCK
Cora lounges on the couch with a sketch pad against her legs and a pencil in her hand while professional wrestling plays on the TV.
Is she about to bust his ass?
“Wrestling. Well, a replay. I’m weeks behind. Had to start from where I left off, so I don’t miss out on the storyline.”
Omg Cora IS about to bust his ass
Even the wrestlers in the ring stop their assault. It’s staged, but I’m still pulled into the drama of it.
Im sorry but its not giving what it should give, this is just awkward
It does funny things to my ovaries.
Girl no it doesnt
She believes I’ve done something unforgivable, and I’ve made no move to correct her.
Yeah why havent you?
He shrugs a shoulder. “It’s okay. I’m thirty-five. I’ve come to terms with it.” “Thirty-five?”
Didnt you guys sign mariage papers? I feel like his date of birth wouldve been on those
Did you not read the marriage license?”
Lmao nevermind
“Yeah, that is right,” he murmurs, before dropping his head and kissing me. Right here, in the grocery store.
Oh yes
Cleo has curled herself on the end of my bed, a place she seems to have claimed as her own.
But hey what happenned to his house?
I work out at the local rec center or hit up my new favorite yoga class,
He does yoga?
And then my wife, wearing my mask, holds her fingers up in a peace sign, sticks her tongue out, and snaps a selfie on my phone.
Me fr
“I don’t really want you to stop. But that’s why we should.”
Girl that makes no sense
Most likely brought on by the reminder that I’m me… and she thinks I evicted her sister.
Yeah how about you just talk to her
Plus, one more who I have yet to meet.
But you did its your yoga instructor
It makes me wonder if she’s found a way to forgive me for Erika and the role she thinks I’ve played.
She would if you just TOLD HER THE WHOLE STORY
Because when it comes out… I don’t know.
?? Is he in the wrong?
It’s my way of saying I’m sorry for being so combative.
Acts of service, I get it
his backstory has the “acts of service” part of me in its grip.
What i said
Rhys’s hulking silhouette appears at the top of the ramp, the crowd screams, and butterflies erupt in my stomach.
Im sorry I cant take this seriously
It chokes me up.
Cant relate
Then he does a massive backflip off the top rope
Now wtf is this
Trixie
Whos trixie?
