Macie + McCall

Macie: My pretentious asshole parents. Are you kidding me? You knew they were the reason, and you let me go on and on about how bad they felt for me? Didn’t you want to shove a sock in my mouth and go vomit in my bathroom?

McCall: I haven’t heard you be this dramatic in a long time. But yeah. It was difficult.

Macie: I feel like an idiot. How could I not have known?

McCall: Maybe deep down you did. Or at least suspected. Who wants to believe the worst of the people who were supposed to love you the most?

Macie: It’s like someone came into my head and turned on the lights for the first time. I was so naïve.

McCall: Of course you were, Macie girl, you were fucking eighteen. You were supposed to be naïve. I bet they banked on it.

Macie: They kept my letters. More like stole them. But how did you end up with them? They couldn’t have given them to you, that’s too easy. And there was no way to know if you’d tell me the truth about my daddy’s threats.

McCall: I found them, actually. I was in your father’s office, stealing whiskey out of that crystal decanter. There they were in a stack on the bookcase. I took them and ran.

Macie: Why didn’t you give them to me right away?

McCall: Honestly? I don’t know. I think I was in shock at how low they had stooped. Booker called that evening and when I told him, he asked me to keep them safe.

Macie: So much heartache could have been avoided.

McCall: We were all kids, Mace. None of us knew the right path, and we’re all living with regrets.

Macie: I went over to their house last night and confronted them. I was fuming. Like steam coming out of my ears.

McCall: Your momma pretend to faint?

Macie: You know it. Ugh. I’m so angry, and annoyed, and mad at everyone. But I have to plaster a happy smile on my face and take my kids on a damn field trip.

McCall: Oh, to the berry farm? I always loved that one when we were little.

Macie: Yeah. Me too. Now I feel like a rain cloud is hanging over my head and every once in a while there’s a crack of lightning recharging my anger.

McCall: Well, have fun, Eeyore.
