I’ve never had to report a crime before, and I’ve never had to do it over the phone.

Right after you hang up the phone, when it’s just you sitting alone on your bed and you can hear your housemates talking in the kitchen, and maybe one of them has said something funny because they’re all laughing. And you’re shaking so hard you can’t even put your sweater on, but what does it matter when you can’t even tell if it’s cold anymore?

Those are the loneliest moments of your life.
