12 COLE My head was pounding, but that didn’t stop Dec from giving me hell. I’d been so pissed after I left Hannah the day before, I’d come home and finished off a bottle of whiskey, something I hadn’t done since college. Now I was paying the consequences, not just for the drinking but for the way I’d yelled at Hannah. Dec had been tied up at the hospital in Bozeman and then work so it wasn’t until this morning that I had a chance to fill him in on what happened. We were supposed to go see Hannah at lunch like usual but we started arguing and never stopped. Needless to say, Dec was not pleased by my less-than-forgiving stance. No, he was f*****g pissed. “I can’t believe you told her we were through with her without giving her a chance to explain.” I winced at hearing it put like that
