Debbie only bought the drugs in case of emergencies, she never expected to use them.
But Lou has built a whole life without her. Lou has said she'll walk.
And sometimes desperate times call for desperate measures.
Preview of Chapter Eight:
Lou smoothed the front of her deep maroon vest, tucked her bright red tie a little more securely down the front. Butterflies flapped against her ribs. She almost laughed at herself, at how lovestruck she felt. A second later, she almost cried, because this - her and Debbie - wasn’t trivial at all, and she was done with trying to convince herself that it was anything other than the most important thing in her life.
This maroon suit does things to me and I’m sad they changed the vest and tie for it in the film. ANyway, I’m pleased to be bringing it back - complete with the bright red tie - in this chapter. Enjoy!
