Waylon: I wish I had some comforting words to say but I don’t blame you for having those fears. I’d put all three in the hospital if I knew who the other two were.
Harlow: You know, violence is never the answer
She quips with a tongue-sticking-out emoji.
Waylon: It is when they tried to kill a teenage girl.
Harlow: To keep from a complete melt down, I’ve convinced myself that the other two were bad kids andare probably in prison for other crimes. There’s no way my house was their first and only attempt.
Waylon: I would be surprised if it was, too, but it’s possible they don’t even live around here. They’d be in their mid-twenties now. They could be anywhere.
Harlow: Hopefully nowhere near me.
God save their souls if they ever come near her again.
Chapter Nineteen
Harlow
Harlow: What feels better for a guy? Jerking off or having someone else do it? And then do men prefer a woman’s mouth or hand more?
Waylon: Harlow…it’s seven in the morning.
Harlow: Oh, shit. Were you sleeping? Sorry!
Waylon: Physically, no. Mentally, yes.
Harlow: I thought you were up at like 5.
Waylon: 5:30-6ish.
Harlow: Okay, so you’ve been up for over an hour. What’s the problem?
Waylon: I don’t usually talk about blow jobs before noon. Especially on a Monday.
Iroll my eyes because I know he’s messing with me.
We’ve been talking every day, all day, for the past week and it’s been a lot of fun. Way better than having to Google orread through Reddit forums. But we’ve also talked about other stuff, some more personal, and some simple like our favorite movies and artists.
It’s made the anxiety about the incident go away and my attacker’s potential probation.
Even more so now that I found out he was denied probation. There were added pending charges to his case that weren’t there before. When I looked up the codes, they were for assault with a deadly weapon and attempted murder. I can only assume without asking my lawyer to look into it that he must’ve been in a prison fight, perhaps with a shank, and it must’ve been bad enough that they’re adding time to his existing time.
Thank God.
I won’t know for sure until he gets sentenced, but it was enough of a relief not to stress about it in the meantime.
Safe to say, I’ve been in a great mood for several reasons.
Harlow: I might have more questions by then.
Waylon: I have no doubt.
Waylon: Guys like being touched anywhere, in any variety. We’re not picky.
Harlow: Will you show me?
Waylon: Show you what?
