Violet Jones had no idea what to do. After three and a half years, at 23 years old, she was finally on her own. The breakup played on repeat in her mind — Ben slamming his hand against the wall right by her face, her sinking onto her heels on the floor, covering her ears with her palms to block the yelling, and finally screaming at Ben that she'd had enough.
As she walked home, she thought about Erik. Mostly, she was glad Ben never found out what happened between her and Erik. As sad as she was about Ben — and afraid as she was of being alone — she couldn't stop thinking about how badly she wanted to repeat the night they spent together.
