I stared at the elegantly arranged platter of sushi as I drained my glass of sake.

Dad had called me a couple of hours ago, inviting me out to lunch at Sasao our favorite restaurant in our neighborhood ever since I’d first moved out to L.A. It was our place.

I hadn’t seen much of him at all lately. He worked long hours in the studio with Astra and her band and then went out with her and stayed at her house now that I was home so they could fuck freely, I guess. How thoughtful. His wife and kid had decided to stay in Mexico another few weeks. So I was basically alone at the house, which was nice, but not so nice.

Ever since I’d gotten back from Nashville, the house seemed too silent, so asphyxiating. Now, it was a living monument to a broken family and I wandered its halls alone. Kendrick had called me with another house to look at, but I’d told him I wasn’t feeling well. The last thing I wanted to do was look at real estate, pretend everything was great, that I was happy and getting on with my life.

I gestured at the waiter and he refilled my glass. “Thank you.” I sucked down the booze.

My phone rang. “Dad? Where are you? I already ordered, because—”

“I’m sorry, son, but I’m stuck in fucking traffic yet again. There’s never a good time of day to be on the road in this town anymore!”

“Don’t worry. I’ll order for you and bring it home, okay? See you there.”

“Okay, good. I’ll see you at home—whenever I get there!”

“Relax, Eric.” I chuckled and clicked off the line. A shitload of Instagram notifications flooded my screen, but that was nothing new. I ignored them and turned over my phone on the table.

I gestured at the waiter and he came over. “Sir?”

I placed an order to go of my dad’s favorite sashimi and sushi along with a couple of avocado rolls for me later. “And the check please.”

“Of course.”

I ate as I waited for the order, but I could barely taste the fresh flavors that I usually loved. Nothing was helping this feeling of aimlessness. Not even practicing guitar and piano every morning. Being consistent with yoga and swimming. Nope.

Jude hadn’t been stopping by either. He was busy these days, seeing a new girl, a painter he met an art gallery party. He wanted to set me up with her best friend.

No thanks. No women. No way. Nope.

“You fucking asshole!” A voice I knew, a loud booming voice, drilled into me like a jackhammer. My heat shot up. Myles. “I cannot believe you did this!”

“Myles, what are you talking about? What’s going on?”

“Are you kidding me?” He shoved his phone in my face. A photo on Instagram of his girlfriend Lisa, naked in bed except for the sheet she held around her chest and between her legs.

“What the hell is this?”

“Seriously? Look at the left of the pic. Recognize anything? Read the fucking post.
