Baby Boy

Jacob chatters in his car seat as we drive through the darkness. I obsessively check my speed, my headlights, my gas tank every two minutes. Not speeding, lights working, more than half a tank, we won't get pulled over, we won't get noticed, we are safe, muttered mantra under my breath. I can scarely see him in the rearview mirror but I coo at the glass anyway, "Mama loves you, baby boy, yes she does yes she does," my heart swelling with love so strong it fills my ears and blurs my vision.

Obviously I've left it on your porch instead of mailing it because that would be ridiculous (who MAILS things anymore? So old school!) So IDK, maybe it’s a note and not a LETTER, but the point is that I wanted to make sure to be super professional about this since you're my boss and since my dad says texting “isn’t professional.” Anyway.

Susan had even dared suggest that perhaps Scott, newly sober as he was, wasn't the best choice for Hanna during this time in her life.
