"Belles?"

"why is it always you that answers when i'm falling apart?"

"Oh. Dom is filming his last scene for the day. Are you crying?"

"yeah."

"What happened? Dom told me about your mom. Is she..?"

"she died this afternoon."

"Jesus, Belles. I'm so sorry."

"i'm a fucking mess, matt. i just can't figure out why she didn't tell us. she didn't tell us until it was too late for us to know. it was almost like she'd given up on herself and us too, you know?"

"I'm sure she was just trying to save you the heartache, hon."

"well it worked really well, didn't it?"

"I know. I don't even know what to say, Belles. I wish we were there."

"yeah, me too."

"How's Nora?"

"more of a mess than i am. she was actually close with mom. she saw her once a week most of the time and she blames herself for not knowing. "

"It's not anyone's fault. If your mom didn't want you guys to know, you weren't going to know."

"i know. i keep trying to tell her that but she won't believe me."

"She will eventually, Belles. I'm sure she just needs some time."

"yeah, i'm sure. i'm going to go try and get my shit together. have dom call me, okay?"

"Of course. Love you, Belles."

"love you too, matty."
