There arenae any, and it's depressing. I just want to slap every guy I meet for being an arse. Soon! I tried to get there a couple weeks ago, but I got offered this job with a photographic studio. Which I maybe quit...
How do I...? I havenae got anything against them. I've only got things against American men that cannae quote anything but Braveheart at me. Smooth at what, love?
Erm, it was maybe because I couldnae stand my boss and the woman was a halfwit who ran her studio to the hours of her love life.
Aye, I like musicians. I like anyone artistic. I havenae had a bad experience with bass players that I know of. What are you up to, Riley Browne?
I've been looking for things, but it seems a wee bit pointless. If I'm going to come back for Tara's baby, I'm wondering if I should just come back now. Gives me time to find a place and a job in American with nay having to worry about moving again.
Well, see, my sister has a bass player... Irish bass player... actually, Tara's cousin and he's, like, REALLY good.
Lachlan told me yesterday Tara is due in fifteen weeks. It's going to go damn quick and then Lachlan's going to be a father! You want to come here permanently? For real?
I know, it's unbelievable! I cannae believe it's already nine months almost. Seems like five minutes. Aye, I do. I promised Tara and Lachlan I'd be their babysitter. I cannae ignore my promises. I dinnae know if it'll be Princeton. I might have to look at work in New York as well.
New York is cool. Oh hey, Keiran lives in New York. What a coincidence! And I'm there a lot too because my therapist is there. Tab's just moved in with her boyfriend and Tara's in-laws are there.
I've only met him a couple of times and most of those he was heading onto the stage. He talks like Tara, only not as fast as she does. More softer, but he's broader than her. He hasn't been in America as long as she has.
Hey, I'm trying! I don't have the Yodalan suaveness. He'd have you on a blind date and nearly coming in your pants at just the thought of who you were seeing. I just suck at playing cupid.
I'm getting out of it. I still have some shit days, but nowhere near as bad I was. It was horrible. But I feel better about things. Well, most things. Others are going to take more time. And nope! This is her new hottie that she's actually in love with. An Aussie called Luke. He plays sax and owns a bar. She's smitten.
I can deal with broad. It's nay like I mind an accent. What does he wear on stage?
Aye, well... Yodalan has a gift for talking things up. I remember him trying to get you to eat haggis. He did a spin job on that one. If you think he's a good guy that's enough for me. I havenae really anything to lose.
Is there anything I can do to help? I'm sure you get asked that all the time. I'm so happy for Tab. She deserves to be happy. I cannae believe she's living with him and smitten after everything you told me. And after everything I saw while I was with you in Princeton. I didnae think you'd ever be satisfied until she was settled. And I didnae think she'd ever really be settled.
Uh. Jeans, t-shirts. Actually, I've seen him in leather a few times. But the worn type, you know? Not the type that looks like it's just been plucked off a discount wrack. Worn rocker type. Jacket and pants and stuff.
The bloody shit. Told me they'd deport if I didn't eat it at least once. That it was a law to eat it when you went to Scotland to live. Alright, when you come, I'll take you to one of Tab's gigs. But there is something you should probably know about him.
Not really. I mean, mostly on the bad days I just spend being a lump in bed. Eating is one of the biggest. I don't really much. Lost a lot of weight. I might scare you when you see me. And she's very happy. He adores her, too. The weekend I got my diagnosis, he dropped everything and came to stay here with us in Princeton for her. He was here for two weeks, didn't even bat an eyelid. Helped Evie when I had a bleeding freak out. They just fit together so well.
Yodalan got you good. He's got two heads? When do you want me to come? Oh wait, I need to pack my shit up again. Fuck. It'll take me a week at least. And sell my flat like I was going to do before.
Scare me? You cannae scare me, love. Just don't blame me if I cry. You know I dinnae like it when you're hurting. You're nay eating because you don't want to, or you cannae keep it down? He sounds like a good bloke. Your sister's definitely struck gold. And how is your girlfriend?

You're shocking, Riley! How is everything going? Are you out of the hole? Her boyfriend? The one that made her leave you?
