There’s a line in the last paragraph of this story that took my breath away. With one phrase adds such depth to the protagonist of this story about a woman stuck in a relationship with an idiot. I won’t quote it below, read the story.

…she slides in across from Cam who leans towards her and she thinks he might kiss her in public only he says he’s going to go to the bathroom and can she order potato skins and that he’s going to try to get them free drinks when he gets back so just go with it, but she doesn’t want any more to drink.
