After I came back, I stormed into the bank with my ID and shut down that savings account ending in 6666. In my previous life, Eric always had some excuse about cash flow and borrowed my card. I was blinded by love, even setting the PIN to his birthday. That all blew up when debt collectors kicked my door in, and I saw my name listed as the emergency contact on his loans. He spent every dollar I earned on his games and overpriced toys. When I finally confronted him, he was cuddling his mistress, trying on a Rolex charged to my own card. He shoved me during the fight, and my head slammed against the counter. Then I saw his phone light up with a message, [Mr. Grant, we're happy to tell you that loans under Ms. Sutton's name have been approved.] Then I snapped awake, and suddenly it was the day he first borrowed my card. A message popped up. [Babe, just grabbing some cash from your card. I'll pay you back later.] Another lie. Eric, time to settle up.
