Unforgettable Page #4

---

I had to come over the other day

to get Lily to eat and put her to bed.

And Lily told me she heard her scream

in the middle of the night.

We're all figuring it out.

Come on.

I'm sorry, David.

I'm sorry that we even

have to be talking about this.

Huh.

There isn't a day that goes by

that I don't regret--

Tessa,

goodbye,

Hey!

Look what I found.

Great! Where was it?

In the car. Under the seat.

Okay, I looked there.

I'ma go make a sandwich.

You want anything?

Yes, please.

And, babe,

set up your phone tracker app, please.

Mmm-hmm.

Hello?

Hello?

Of all the days to drop you off late.

And your hair is a mess.

Julia should never have

sent you home like this.

- Sorry.

- It's not your fault.

Do you miss when Mommy and Daddy

lived together?

When I was really little?

You weren't that little.

I don't remember.

She's here! Lovey's here!

Let me finish your hair.

Lovey can wait a moment.

Oh, you didn't bake the scones?

They're from Colfax Cafe, Mother.

Your favorite.

You're dragging your knife.

And the silver needs polishing.

I understand

that your father is getting married.

Uh-huh.

Well, I'm sure Daddy's girlfriend

is a very nice person.

Do you like her?

I guess so.

She has long brown hair.

On.

- I made you a bracelet, Lovey! Wanna see?

- Not now.

Oh, she can show me if she wants.

You look tired.

I'm not.

I'll take you to see Dr. McKee.

A good dermatologist is your best friend

and it is time for you

to pull yourself together

and get a new David.

For your sake, and for Lily's.

I need some time.

Time doesn't exist at your age.

David has moved on and so should you.

Maybe I'll get a job.

I do have a degree, you know.

It's not easy, all this change.

Maybe you should have

thought of that before you--

Mother.

Not again, please.

I tried so hard to

cement things with David.

I told you, having his baby would work.

And Lily was living, breathing,

perfect cement.

Then you ruined it.

There's no going back.

I just want you to be happy.

I don't want you to be alone.

Okay, Lovey.

Ya y!

Okay!

You're ready for the runway. I love it!

That's it. Chin up. Shoulders back.

That's my girl.

SARAH". It's nice to see David so happy.

It's also really nice to come over here

and not feel like

I'm walking on eggshells.

- That bad, huh?

- Mmm-hmm.

Well, things didn't actually work out

for Tess the way she wanted.

In more ways than one.

What do you mean?

Well, at first we thought

Tessa was amazing.

Star at Stanford, super charming,

so together,

all the big firms

were recruiting her, too.

But then she changed,

got possessive, turned into Gollum

and David was her precious.

Oh, wow.

We were thrilled when
