Compromise

You kept hearing the binging of your phone. Seriously what the hell? You check and see that Beth is texting you pleading texts despite the blocking. Wonderful. You unblock and call her. She answers eagerly. “Amy, thank you so…” “I will see you next Friday at a cafe. We will talk then. DO NOT CALL. DO NOT TEXT. DO NOT EVEN THINK OF TRYING TO REACH MY CHILD! If you can do this, then we can meet.” “Ok. Ok, great, I look…” “Bye Beth.” you cut her off, disconnecting the call and blocking her. You can only imagine how difficult the days leading to next Friday will be.
