“Hey, did you get my package?” I hear as I answer a call from Casey.

“What package?” I ask into the phone not bothering to say hello either.

“It says it’s been delivered go check!”

“Okay. Hang on.” I scurry out of the kitchen to the little table we keep by the door and then about turn and double back into our bedroom.

“You’ll love it, it’s for the game tonight,” he continues. “Coach says I’m going to get some ice time, so I had this couriered to you. It says it was signed for.”

“Oh. Nick must have accepted it.” Turning into the bedroom I gasp when I see the box addressed to me ripped open and I know straight away something is very wrong. The opening is jagged and carelessly cut. You do not belong to him scratched in pen along the side.

“Hurry up, Coralie I need to go gear up.”

I pull the cardboard apart further and can barely contain the flood of tears. Lifting it out of the box further, the forest green Minnesota Wild jersey falls away into three pieces which I clutch to my chest, closing my eyes.

Unaware, Casey carries on excitedly. “I know you already have one from when I got here but I thought seeing as this is my first official game, well, you know,” he trails off.

Steeling myself I nod and try to find my voice.

“Oh, Casey it’s perfect thank you. I can’t wait to wear it. I’m so proud of you.”

My smile is genuine even though I feel like it’s me who’s been shredded and not the jersey.

“What’s wrong Coralie? Why are you crying?”

“I’m just really happy and wish I was there with you at your first NHL game. All your hard work paid off and look at you now! Using a courier and everything.”

“Ha-ha! Right? I gotta go but if I score it’s for Jack, okay?”

“Well, now you’ve said it you’ve got to.” I mean he’s in bed, but I’ll show him the highlights tomorrow.

I hear his name being called. “Shit. This is it. Love ya!”

The line goes dead, along with my heart as I scramble to try and lay the pieces back together. I can tell Nick’s used the garden shears to destroy the jersey and it looks like they’ve gone straight through our family name.

Why the hell would he do this?

But there’s no need to ask the question. He did it because he’s as green as the jersey I’m holding with envy. Jealous of Casey and of how close we are. Or were. He did it because he knows how to hurt me.

Right here—this is how you make sure there’s no fight left, you use and take away the only thing I care about. My family.

If he can do something like this to me then what is he capable of doing to Jack?

I spend the rest of the lead-up to the game inspecting every single inch of each of the pieces from the shirt, making sure it’s the same as the one Casey gave me after he was drafted.
