His First Lady
“Everyone’s going to be too hungover to properly function. Just rest. Tomorrow is another day.”
With those assurances, I drift off to sleep. Blessedly, I do not dream.
Over the next few days, I watch with growing alarm and misapprehension as Edward seems to charm the nation. While I avoid watching many of his interviews outright, afraid of another panic attack, I read the transcripts. He says all the right things. Even the interviewers seem utterly endeared to him.
It’s disgusting. If only they could see the man for who he truly is and not the veneer he wears on the surface. But life has always been unfair. Why should that change just because things have finally started to go my way?
