She was using you. She didn't love you, she doesn't love you, and she'll never love you. She only wants to use you. "It doesn't excuse what I did," he said. Then let her use me. If it lets me get close to her, then let her use me.

There was a moment when she didn't say anything, just pressing her sore arm to her turning stomach and letting the cigarette dangle from her fingers. "Can we just forget about it? Please... I don't want there to be problems between the two of us..."
Yeah, because forgetting about it makes it go away...

She nodded slightly, eyes fluttering slightly. "Look, if you don't want to, you don't have to help with the boys tomorrow... or ever," she murmured, fighting back a yawn. She needed to get that cleared up before she just completely passed out from exhaustion.

"No," he said, looking at her. "I'll help if you want me to. I don't mind."

"If you're sure..." she nodded slightly, watching him tiredly. "I won't turn down any help."

Wanda half smiled, stubbing out her cigarette and readjusting herself on the railing. "Thank you."

"It's no trouble," he said, polishing off the bottle of gin. He was getting tired and a bit dizzy.

He stood up slowly, grabbing the railing for support. "What time are they coming tomorrow?"

"A little before lunch, probably." She held out her good hand to him, silently offering him some support. "Maybe nine or ten..."

I hope I'm not too hung over...no, I'll be fine...just have to drink some water before bed, coffee when I wake up...I'll be fine. He nodded, gently brushing her off. "I'll be fine," he said.

"Yeah," she mumbled, following him into the house and making it about as far as the living room couch before she collapsed exhausted.
