I’m owned by this guy.

“Touch means pain. I’m tired of the pain.”

“This has to stop. Either go to Michigan or get your shit together,”
“Jeremy is worried sick about you. So, either fucking talk to him or put him out of his misery. He’s trying to find a way to tell his mom he’s leaving early or he’s going to end up with an ulcer from the stress.”
