- 8.
I found Emily.
This time, Sarah and her fiance came along.
We were going to publicly apologize to Emily.
We would do anything she wanted.
Emily agreed.

She agreed quickly.
“You finally understand. You know your place!”
“If you apologize, I’ll have my 500,000 fans go easy on you.”
Her social media account went from 0 to
500,000 followers.
They supported her under the banner of
women’s safety.
The stream was starting at 8 PM, when the
internet was the most active.
People joined quickly.
The chat was going crazy.
“Are they apologizing?”
“It looks like it. It looks like we won!”
“No! They’re apologizing because they’re scared, not because they were wrong!”
“I agree! This is just the beginning!”
Emily was loving the comments.
“You know you were wrong, and you’re here to
apologize.”
“Start now.”
Emily focused on the word “start,” and looked
at Sarah’s fiance.
I stepped in front of him.
“It all started with me.”
Ignoring Emily, I started talking.
“Dr. Peterson, he’s 27, and handsome.”

“He’s a doctor, his family is wealthy.”
I turned to Emily.
“Emily, she’s 34, she’s decent–looking.”

“She has a normal job and makes around 6,000
a month.”
“I’ve known her for five years, and she hasn’t
had a boyfriend.”
“No one has hit her up. She’s a loner.”
Emily was confused.
After I told her information, she changed her
face.
She tried to yell at me.
I pointed to the stream.

Emily paused.
“…You…you were going to apologize.”
“I trusted you!”
“You’re evil!”
Emily was trying to make herself cry.
I ignored her, and talked about Sarah.
“Sarah, she’s 26. She’s gentle.”

“She went to a great school, and makes 5 times
as much as Emily.”
I looked at the stream.
“Anyone can see that they’re right for each other, right?”
I looked back at Sarah’s fiance.

“Are you blind?”
