'i should have known better. you know anna, i try to be your friend. i try to forget i still love you when you come to me with stuff instead of going to your lover and all i get is slapped in the face. i just can't do it anymore. you tire me out and i've had it. just tell arlo i'll talk to him later.'
davey started towards the door.

davey managed to make it almost to the lobby before he leant against the wall, thinking how much he missed having anna in his life as a partner. he shook it off as just feeling sorry for himself. but then from what he had seen and been told of arlo and anna, it didn't appear that their union was any great love affair. of course he couldn't look at it objectively. he was too close to anna.
davey pushed himself off the wall, and shoving his hands in his pockets went out into the street.

Just when he was about to turn the corner he heard his name being called. What he had hoped for some moments ago happened now that he didn't want it any more.
Hey wait up Davey!

the tone in davey's voice put anna on the defensive. she looked at him and all she could see was anger and resentment.
'nothing. i don't want anything from you davey. you're right. you can't do this now. and i can't do it at all. ever. we can't be friends. so don't come up and talk to me if we're in the same crowd. i can't stand the accusatory looks you give me. goodbye davey.'
with that anna walked away back towards arlo's. davey stood there for a few minutes trying to take stock of what just happened. he'd just been blown off by the woman he loved. by the woman he would probably always love. and you know what. it felt alright to him. he smiled to himself and began walking.

He felt better than he had done so all day. He forgot all about Hamish and strolled in the direction of Dizzy's. A glass of cognac was what he wanted while he would laugh at all the silly events of this morning.

freya sat on the edge on the bed, trying not to breath too loud as she buttoned up her shirt. vincent lay sprawled on his back asleep, his flaccid penis resting against his thigh, spent. what she was doing freya didn't know. she loved him despite what he had done to her and to anna. at least she thought it was love. when she told him about the baby he was thrilled. he held her and caressed her. said it was all working out for the best. standing up she went into the toher room and dialled anna's number. she doubted she could ever explain this to her sister. absently rubbing she belly she waited. there was no answer. she replaced the phone. turning she found vincent standing in the doorway. she smiled awkwardly. he stepped towards her.
'who you calling?'

freya didn't move nearly fast enough. the back of vincent's hand connectioned with her face and she stumbled. she was momentarily stunned. she looked at her husband hating him, but also hating herself for being so weak. not sure whether it was bravado or stupidity, freya squared up against him.
'don't think for a minute that i believe anything you have to say to me vincent. i know what you did to anna. and i am the only reason you are not rotting in a jail cell. you ever strike me like that again or treat me with such disrespect and you'll end up back there being someone else's bitch. you understand?'
trembling inside but determined not to lose it in front of vincent, freya retreated to the bathrooom, where she promptly vomitted. when she came out, vincent was nowhere to be found. she was alone.

Freya started to grow a panicky felling. Would he go to Anna's again? Shit and there was no way of warning her. If she had the phone number of Arlo she could call him instead, but she didn't. What now she thought to herself. If only she had left him in his cell. Think Freya think, this guilt trip isn’t going to help.

vincent sat in a dingy bar, nursing a beer and resenting freya more with every passing minute. he told himself that she needed him. all those years ago when anna rebuffed him and freya was waiting in the wings, begging for attention, he knew he's found someone to play with. he wanted anna but she was maybe just too much for him. for any man as it turns out. it took davey long enough to dump her and now she'd fallen on her feet with this other guy and he was still stuck with freya. he didn't even think that he was understimating anna. that was his mistake. she was prepared to let her whole life collapse. he had to admire her for that. though that whole manic thing she had going didn't exactly appeal to him. she really got messed up during those times and was no good for anything or to be around anyone. but he'd get her. somehow he would get his way with anna. he just had to deal with freya first.

vincent looked at the old man with disdain. the guy was wearing a cheap suit and probably spent the hours he was meant to be at work, drinking and wishing he didn't have to go home to face the missus. they were ball breakers, all of them. the old man motioned to the bar tender for a couple more drinks. when he set them down on the bar, the old man downed half his glass in one hit.
'looking like that, it has to be about a woman. am i right?'

with a little bit of caution, the guy sat back down. vincent gave off this vibe like some caged animal in the zoo. he had seen men like this. his father was a man like that. well while he was alive anyway. vincent took the proffered drink and looked at the guy trying to gauge him.
'so you come in here everyday dressed like you're going to work, trying to escape your wife?'
