Eden’s Old Phone

Eden : This might be too personal, so feel free to tell me to shut up.

F : Let’s hear it.

Eden : I don’t like it when he… When Dad calls me ‘Pet’.

*message deleted*

Eden : Nevermind.

Eden : It’s a sin to even think that way. To be so disobedient and disrespectful. To rebel. I don’t know what’s been happening to me lately.

F : You know, people say that all the time. I don’t think it’s true .

Eden : That I don’t know what’s happening to me? You’re right, I know exactly what’s been happening to me.

F : Or what you’ve been doing.

Eden : What I’ve been doing is a sin, isn’t it?

F : You really want me to answer that?

Eden : It’s just that… Someone came along, someone who treats me better than Dad. And every other thought flew out of my mind. Everything I’ve been taught. Forgotten. I just… I became this different person. This person who disobeys.

Eden : Hey, question.

F : What?

Eden : Do you think I should stop? Going to the woods, I mean.

F : You know you will have to stop eventually.

Eden : But…

F : But not yet.

Eden : No, not yet.
