And I remembered I had a traumatic reason for it. Something with a lot of tears, and pain, and disappointment. But I couldn’t, for the life of me, remember what it was.
Doctor Cohen sat and listened to me. Sometimes he wrote things on his clipboard. He even cracked a joke or two. Then, he assured me that he knew a lot of ways to help me. That they’d run tests, start therapy, and play interactive games with me to jog my memory. That all I needed to do was trust the process and remain calm.
Then he asked again, “Now, would you like me to bring Mr. von Bismarck in?”
“Yes.”
I didn’t hesitate. I wasn’t sure about a lot of things, but I was sure I wanted to see Oliver. That he would have, at least, some answers. Oliver was always my favorite place to come back to. He was the only address my heart had ever known.
“Bring him in.”
Chapter Thirteen
Oliver
Romeo Costa:Is it true what they say?
Ollie vB:Don’t act so surprised. You’ve seen me naked plenty of times. You know it can’t be shorter than twelve inches.
Romeo Costa:You spelled ‘eight on a good day’ wrong.
Zach Sun:Rumor has it you assaulted a woman working on the film Frankie interned on.
Ollie vB:Interned is an interesting choice of words.
Romeo Costa:What word would you use?
Ollie vB:Crashed. Terrorized. Lit on fire. Your pick.
Romeo Costa:Don’t change the subject. Who is she?
Ollie vB:Your sister-in-law, much to your chagrin.
Zach Sun:The woman you harassed. Frankie said you let her drive your Ferrari so you could stalk the woman.
Ollie vB:Frankie has been doing a lot of talking, I see.
Romeo Costa:Where are you, anyway?
Ollie vB:The hospital.
Romeo Costa:THE HOSPITAL?
Zach Sun:THE HOSPITAL?!?!
Ollie vB:She’s suffering from a concussion.
Zach Sun:Is this a good time to call your lawyers, Oliver?
Ollie vB:I was the one who rescued her, not hurt her. JFC.
Zach Sun:I’m calling them just in case.
Romeo Costa:I’m heading over to the hospital.
Ollie vB:No need.
Romeo Costa:I’m bringing Dal with me.
