After Zack’s dad left Sunday night, I think both of us had a lot more to think about than we realized. Yesterday, Zack and I spent the day watching movies and playing board games. We also talked… a lot. He did tell me Rylee is coming out on Friday and we’re having a double date with her and Pete on Saturday. I’m not sure Pete knows it’s a date, yet, but he did agree to come over for dinner.

Today, we spent the day by the pool—flirting, kissing, and talking some more. Zack and I have always had an easy rapport, and for the most part, have been able to talk about anything. It’s one of the perks of being in love with your best friend.

Zack sent me upstairs to relax a bit while he got ready for the next part of his plan. He also needed to call his dad and see how his talk with Rylee went. They both decided it would be best if he told her everything he told us the other night. I know this is going to hit Ry so hard; she’s never been privy to all the negative things her mom has done.

My phone begins to ring and before I even look at the caller ID, I know it’s going to be Rylee.

“Hey, Ry,” I answer, using a very soft tone and I hear her sobs before she even attempts to speak. I’m guessing her conversation with her dad didn’t go well.

“Why didn’t you tell me?” she wails hysterically on the other end of the line.

“Which part?”

“The part where my mother has been torturing you for years and you never said a word to me. I could kill her with my bare hands!”

“Ry, calm down, please. I didn’t tell you because it was my battle to fight and I was doing a good job of it up until the wedding.”

“You’re my best friend you should have told me!” I know I deserve her anger but she needs to understand my point.

“She’s your mother, Ry, and she loves you very much. Her issues with me are just that. They have nothing to do with you. I’d never want your relationship with her tainted over her misguided sense of loyalty to the Stafford legacy. And in her defense, she was only doing what your grandmother engrained in her. She honestly felt she was doing the right thing, so as much as I want to fault her, I just don’t know if I can.” As the words come out of my mouth, I realize I mean them whole-heartedly.

“What the hell, Cassidy? For once in your life can’t you just be fucking pissed off and angry about something? Why do you so easily say ‘let’s forgive and forget?’ How about ‘it’s time to fuck a bitch up?’ Holy shit, what is wrong with you?”

“Nothing is wrong with my, Rylee!” I’m screaming at her now but I don’t care at this point.

“Do you want me to be an angry, resentful person? I spent years being angry because I had the shittiest parents on the planet.
