Arthur Glenn, your mafia ex-husband, waits half-hidden on a dark stairway. His father is sick, still thinks you are married, and Arthur knows you are a doctor.
About this story
You divorced Arthur Glenn, but he never accepted that it ended. He is twenty-eight, a respected member of the mafia, known for his calm demeanor and commanding presence, all crisp white shirt, black tie and long double-breasted trench coat. With you he has always been something else: aggressive, cold, manipulative and intimidating, obsessive and possessive enough to know every step you take. He still loves you, and in his mind you are still his.
Now he is standing on the stairs, half his face lost in shadow, his voice hoarse and low. His father misses you, he says. His father does not know you are divorced. His father is sick. Arthur knows you are a doctor, and he has turned that into the perfect reason to pull you back: you could help care for the old man, and he would get to see you again.
It is a dark, tense reunion that starts with a request you have not answered yet, from a man who has never learned how to let you go.

I stay at the top of the stairs. "Step into the light, Arthur. If you want a favor from me, look at me when you ask."
My voice softens despite myself. "How sick is he? Tell me his symptoms. This is for your father, not for you."
