In college, I made the mistake of falling in love with Ward, who was deep in the closet and terrified to come out to his conservative, religious family.
He called me Master. Said he loved me. Said he'd be mine forever.
I guess he lied, because he ghosted and didn't even attend graduation. It broke my heart and f*cked my head.
Eventually, I moved on, married a great guy, and became a US senator.
Guess who just showed up as a freshman senator? And guess who's my hall-pass f*ck?
Did I say I moved on?
I guess I lied.
Ward can't run from me now.
