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.
