covering several pairs of shoes in the closet. “Jenna, what’s going on?”
    “Nothing.” I walked over to my bed and grabbed the phone from where it had fallen on the pillow.
    “Phone on the bed. Dress on the floor. Christ, he called you, didn’t he? You didn’t…”
    “I did. In front of his girlfriend.” A new batch of hot tears filled my eyes and I swatted them away with the sleeve of my sweatshirt. “Can we go now?”
    Her eyes widened when what I had told her sank in. “In front of Robin Axelrod. The movie star. You had phone sex with your boyfriend… in front of the movie star, Robin Axelrod.” She nodded her head up and down, as if she were trying to digest her own words.
    “That’s the gist, yep.” I pressed my lips into a line. “First and last time.” I dropped my voice, barely speaking over a whisper. “Motherfucker.”
    Her lips turned up into the slightest of grins. “If it wasn’t so tragic, it would be funny. You’ll laugh about this someday, Jenna.”
    “Unlikely.” I flicked my gaze over her. “You want to change?”
    She looked down and frowned at the sexy red dress we had purchased for her that morning. It was a shame that it would be out of place for her at a movie theater. “I guess I should.” She looked back at me. “You should put on something else, too. You’ll fry in that sweatshirt. It’s almost a hundred degrees outside.”
    “I’m fine.” This was the same sweatshirt I had worn when Daniel died. When I thought he died. It was warm. Familiar. Comfortable. “I’ll be fine.”
    She nodded and pulled a t-shirt and pair of shorts from my dresser. “I’m sorry, sweetie. Are you sure this wasn’t just a big misunderstanding? I mean, maybe…”
    I shook my head and held up my hand for her to stop. “It wasn’t a misunderstanding. Not this time. She was there. I didn’t hear her until the end, but she was there.” I felt my face grow hot, just admitting it to her. She was there. I knew she was.
    “It doesn’t make sense, Jenna. Why would he do that? Why would he humiliate you like that?” She shook her head again. “I’ve seen him with you. He loves you. I mean, he’s crazy in love with you. There has to be another explanation.”
    I plopped down on the edge of the bed. “Are you trying to make me doubt myself? I know what I heard.” My cheeks reddened and my voice dropped to a whisper. “I know what I did.”
    She let out a long sigh. “I just think you should ask him. At least ask him what he was hoping to accomplish by doing that to you. He owes you at least that much.”
    “He turned his phone off. He’s done with me. He was pissed off at me and he ran back to her. Then he decided he’d humiliate me, just to show me he could.” I looked down at my hands. “I don’t want to talk to him again.”
    “I just don’t think…”
    I cut her off. “You didn’t hear him this morning, the way he talked to me. There was no explanation, no reasoning. Just him telling me no, like I was a toddler that touched the electrical outlet or something. Just “no.” He’s a twisted bastard. He’s trying to break me for good.”
    “You’re not broken, Jenna. You’re strong; you’ve dealt with worse. You got through the thing with Daniel, you’ll get through this. You’ll persevere.” She looked at me with something close to pity in her eyes. “I know you, and I know you will.”
    I stared at the wall behind her. “He looked for the cracks. He played me for so long that he found them, and he used them against me.” I looked over to meet her gaze. “He just wanted to break me this whole time.”
    She sat down on the bed next to me and pulled my hand into hers again. “I don’t know what happened, Jenna. I just know I love you, and I’ll do whatever you need me to do. Okay? You want me to go find the guy and beat him up? Gut him?” She looked up at me through her blonde, curly bangs.
    I couldn’t help but smile just a little. “Maybe just the
