The story

Zack has spent his eighth year with Mary, a defense attorney, watching her endlessly apologize for Toby, the teenage delinquent she once defended. When Toby hides thumbtacks in Zack's running shoes, leaving his feet bleeding, Mary offers her fifty-first apology and calls it an accident. Toby has a fingerprint on their smart lock, wears Zack's loungewear, and cooks in their kitchen while Zack was away.

When Zack demands repayment for his medical bills and the return of his clothes, Mary explodes, insisting Toby is just a lonely kid who needs guidance. She accuses Zack of provoking him and refuses to see Toby's obsession with her. Toby flees, and when Mary tries to follow, Zack blocks her, warning that leaving ends them. She shoves him aside; he falls, injuring his spine, yet she drags him to apologize to Toby.

As Mary walks out, she asks who will take responsibility if Toby harms himself. Lying on the floor, Zack feels something inside him quietly die.

Opening

The teenager my defense attorney girlfriend had defended put thumbtacks in my running shoes. They bit deep into my skin, leaving my feet dripping with blood.

And once again, she apologized on his behalf.

The doctor was sterilizing the wounds and prepping the syringe. The needle was long, sinking deep into my flesh, and the sharp, hot sting made me sob out loud.
