“Cian, it’s me….

I’m okay.

I’m sorry I didn’t call you sooner. I know I broke my promise. I just had a chance and I couldn’t turn my back on it. Well, I didn’t turn my back on it. I think ‘couldn’t’ is probably a lie.

Anyway, I’m safe. It’s a long story but my car’s still in Searchlight. I hitched a ride back to it, but when I got there I just couldn’t make myself get out of that guy’s truck, I don’t know why, so I’m standing outside a motel in Needles, California, which is every bit as shitty as you might imagine.

I’ve been here a couple of days. It’s quiet. Lots of trucks and trains going by but that’s it.

God.

I miss you.

And I love you, okay?

I’ll talk to you soon, bye.”
