"What do you want?"

"We need to talk."

"You fucked up! There is nothing to discuss. Give me one good reason why I shouldn't blow your brains out right now."

"I guess I deserve that from you. Just hear me out, please?"

"Nope. I heard all I needed to hear from you, which was nothing. I want to keep it that way. Send another letter if you wanna get your point across. I'll be sure to burn it."

"Donnie, we can get through this."

"Are you kidding me? You slept with my husband! You harbored resentment for me for umpteen years, yet you had the audacity to sit in my face, in my home, and pretend like there's nothing wrong. And that, Gabby, I won't fucking deal with."

"I have alot of issues to work out, I know. But, I know I was wrong. Hey, remember when we was in the ninth grade, and we had that spat over Terrence Maldano? He was my everything, and he wanted you. Whew! I thought it was going to get ugly."

"The difference in that and this is, we were younger. Now, in this point in time, We're both married, and you slept with the man who I chose to spend the rest of my life with. We have a child together. Remember Seanny? Your Godson?? Chris meant everything to you, and I never, ever, intruded on that space. You didn't respect me the same way, and that is what's fucked up!"

"I was totally wrong in what I did, make no mistake about it. I just hope that in time, we can build our bridge back up."

"That is highly unlikely, Gabby."

" We have a history. You're just gonna trash it like that? I made a huge mistake, Donnie. You've made some yourself. I don't think that it's fair that you're doing this to me."

"Am I supposed to shed tears for your pissant speech? I wouldn't spit on your ass if you were on fire!"

"What about our children? They're close you know."

"Like I fucking care! Work it out the best way your ass knows how. I would have never did that to you, and I could have. Looking back, I should have. But, I wouldn't look at anybody who slept with your whorish ass!"

"Don't say that. You are my best friend."

"I was your best friend. Friends don't do what you did. You fucked up with me, and now, you have to deal with it."

"Ok. This is not the time. Maybe I'll come back when it's convienent for you, so we can talk."

"Are you smoking that shit? I have nothing else to say to you once this door closes in your face. You are scandalous, a liar, a cheat, and an unfit parent, and I can't clean your messes anymore. I can't hold your hand, wipe your tears, and clean your bruises. Your children are with their grandparents, because you can't hack it, Chris is dead, and you lost maybe two of the closest friends that you have ever had. But, before I close the door to the O'Haire Residence, I have to ask you this. Was it all worth it? I mean, was you being the horrid skank that you are, all worth this heartbreak and pain?"

"Damn, you always had a way of putting things in perspective. I guess I'll be seeing you."

"No, you won't! Leave my property, before I change my mind about putting my foot in your ass."

"You'll change your mind. You just need your space right now."

"Right, and Bill Clinton has his face upon Mount Rushmore. Get the fuck outta my face!"

And she left. She had balls to show up, I give her that. But, it's too late. Batman has cut Robin off from the Batcave. All that she said honestly, meant nothing to me. I'm sorry, guys. You might think that I totally overreacted, but I don't think so. It's not because Sean is special, don't get it twisted. He doesn't have some special "Hold" on me, nor am I naive. Gabby was my so-called friend for many years, as you all know, and this chain reaction, coming from her, and then that letter she sent me, I can't roll with that. Eventhough Gabby and I had a bond thing about us, Sean and I have something much more, even more so now than ever. At least I have one relationship that can be repaired.
