The rain’s soothing dribble against the window is the only thing
keeping me calm as my finger hovers over the mouse. Just click it, I repeat
to myself, over and over again, trying to ignore the frantic thumping of my
heart against my ribcage. You know you’ve got to do this.

Blinking back at me on my laptop’s screen is the final step of the
booking process for Glendale Beach Resort’s oceanfront single cottage. It
shouldn’t be such a big deal, but the slight trembling of my fingertips and
single bead of sweat on my forehead tells another story.
“Goddammit, why does everything have to be so hard?” I sigh as I push
the laptop away from my thighs. Ever since Dad left, it seems like I’ve been
asking myself this question more and more often.
I quickly look around my living room/kitchen/dining room. From the
window to my left, several office windows light up the evening at the nextdoor Concordia University building, where people I assume to be professors
are nervously typing and staring back at their own monitors.
If they were to glance at the run-down twelve-storey apartment building
to their right, there’s a chance they’d see me echo their own anxious
existence.
I don’t know why I bother, but I move my finger away from the
keyboard and pick up my phone instead. Who knows—maybe Dad will
pick up this time and give me the encouraging push I need.
The ringtone echoes against my ear, and my breath halts in anticipation.
Maybe this time…
It’s been an entire month since Dad stopped responding to my calls,
which so happens to be the same amount of time since Jasper dumped me.
In fact, Dad hasn’t responded to anything I’ve sent him since that day.
Worse still, he hasn’t seen my DMs on social media, which means he hasn’t
even logged on in months.
The first time he didn’t answer—when I called him in tears about Jasper
dumping me—I didn’t get too worried. I cried out my broken heart alone,
and I was pissed, of course, but nothing more. Plus, I’d called Sophie, my
best friend, right afterward, and she’d rushed to my place with her newborn
baby and a pint of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream in tow. After all, Dad works a
lot, so he could have been in an important meeting or something.
At 9 p.m. Sure. That’s what I told myself back then, at least.
But when he still didn’t respond to any of my calls, texts, or DMs
throughout the following week, that’s when my anxiety rightfully took over.
I can’t just pop by his place for a quick wellness check. Ever since he
divorced Mom about two years ago, he’s been living in Colombia—the
same place he works. Mom never wanted us to move outside of Canada for
his work, and he finally got to do it after cutting us loose.
