Things were perfect for the first few weeks after our dramatic reunion when Edi got back from her Christmas-break trip back home. I wasn't sure how this all was going to work. But Edi knew how very new this all was to me and was extremely sweet and beyond patient with me.
I'd since ended things with Cole. Fortunately, he called when I was at work, and I didn't need to have that conversation in front of Edi. I felt a little guilty that I didn't tell him everything: that I was now with my female roommate in a lesbian relationship. But he hadn't asked, and I told myself that, regardless of who I was with now, he was probably grateful I spared him the details.
Edi's farewell conversation with Astrid was a little different. It was one she'd had in front of me and a bit difficult to listen to.
