newly discarded abby langdon being furious, petty and rude and mean about mel king ā sheās like hello rue, you owe me money :)! and then the first chance she gets to catch mel without frank for once, sheās made her mind up to really give it to her. so when she sees her putting gas in her little volvo at the shell on east liberty, abby pulls in, parks, and marches herself right over. with a relish. sheās like oh hi, little miss homewrecker? :))) lovely morning. hey, you know what i was thinking i might do for my first weekend without the kids i love and adore and cherish and never used to have to spend time away from? i was thinking i might do something fun like, i donāt know, find your last boyfriend, whoever he might be, and fuck him silly. i havenāt figured out the point system yet ā and for the record as it stands itās abby langdon zero, little miss homewrecker two ā but i do think itās extra points if he dumped you. you want to give me a head start and tell me who he is, or should i default to sorting it all out on instagram? and poor deer-in-headlights melās tank is only half full at this point, darn it, and she lowkey does guiltily feel like she deserves a little bit of the contempt abby is throwing at her (sheās actually been expecting it honestly), so instead of shrinking into the drivers seat and closing the door the way she wants to, she takes it all nobly on the chin and quietly says, āfrank is the only person i ever dated, actually.ā and waow, if there isnāt just a ton of shit to unpack there. but really abby care, doesnāt want to think about the implications of all that right now, sheās too busy being pissed and hurt about everything, so she charges on anyway, and just goes, oh god. fine. how about iāll just find your father on facebook and ruin your parentsā marriage instead. howās that sound, huh. thatād be poetic justice enough for me, i think. melās tank is three-quarters full by now, and she does wince a little as she says, āoh. my dad is dead.ā which does give abby pause for one single second, mostly while she tries to figure out if thatās the truth or not, she really doesnāt know this girl, but then mel, still trying to be helpful in the face of an incident so awful, visibly brightens, and offers in earnest, āāš»i have a cousin in florida you could try to date...ā
