that's really great of you that you started a college fund for her. but i don't mean a babysitter or daycare. -sigh- i mean she was only in my care for four or five months vince. i'm sorry.... i didn't know what was going on with you and i may have had an old number so i didn't know how to get a hold of you... i had to give her up for adoption. -pause- im sorry sorry vince.

YOU HAVE REACHED VINCENT BENOIT, " what do you mean you didn't know what to do? breen, i've been sending you more than enough child support money for a house, her, you, whatever you two needed. not to mention, if you needed help i told you i could support us all. all you had to do was just come back to orleans or call anyone around if you couldn't get my number. why? i don't get it. i sound like a babbling fool. -pause- i just don't understand how you could just give her away.

it wasn't anything to do with the money. honestly, you always sent more than enough so it wasn't like i couldn't take care of us. you make it seem like it was just so easy to take care of her and go to school at the same time. it's hard being by yourself and taking care of a colic baby... -sigh- ... it's hard to just explain to you. -sniffs- ugh. it' just that i had post-partum depression. i couldn't stand living with her crying and i thought about killing her a few times. if we're being all honest here. -sniffing some more- i'm sorry vince i just don't have her. i don't know what else to tell you.

YOU HAVE REACHED VINCENT BENOIT, " then why didn't you bring her here? why didn't you just come home? that's the part i don't understand. i feel like you didn't give a damn that i was her father at all. didn't i get a say in this? what were you doing with the child support anyway then if you weren't using it for her? don't cry, bree. i'm glad you're doing okay. really. i'm sorry about all this. i should've been here, but i couldn't. . . -pauses- i had a lot of family problems and when you got with jason it just made those problems so much worse.

i don't know. i wasn't myself vince. it was a really difficult time for me. it wasn't like i was telling you every goddamn thing that was happening to me. i was in the hospital sick, jason had called off our engagement at that point. i didn't know what i was supposed to do. -pause- the child support went to help me with bills and other living expenses since i was in school at the time still, extra medical bills france wouldn't cover. anything left over went into a college fund. that's what happened to your money. ... im sorry for making things harder on you vince.

if you want me to start paying you back for all the child support you gave me when elsie wasn't around i can do that or id you want to come over for tea or coffee or something? lunch or dinner? i dunno i'm sorry for lying to you pretty much this whole time about elsie. i was just so embarrassed and ashamed about it. i don't really talk about her anymore because it's just upsetting. i wish i didn't but i couldn't handle being a mother at the time since i had too much going on. you could actually meet jason if you wanted?

YOU HAVE REACHED VINCENT BENOIT, " how about you come over for dinner tonight? or if it's too short notice whenever you want. i don't want your money. it was all for you anyways. i would've paid for your school or anything you wanted if you just asked. i wasn't entirely honest with you when you were here anyway, so i guess this makes us even. no offense, but i don't really care to meet jason. maybe one day, but it's just too much right now.

well im not going to school anymore, it's gaining interest in a savings account. i have a job that i really like, so i don't really need to go back to school anytime soon. but thanks vince. i can come over on saturday if that's what you'd like. i understand that you don't want to meet him. it's fine though. if you need me for anything just ask. i feel bad that you've moved here and i don't even have elsie to let you see her

YOU HAVE REACHED VINCENT BENOIT, " i'll pick you up saturday around seven. kind of don't wanna be in your and jason's home. seems odd. glad you've got a nice job you're happy with then. we'll come back to my apartment and i'll cook dinner or make reservations somewhere. whichever you're most comfortable with. it's okay. maybe i'll just go back to orleans.

you should give ridgewood a chance. it's not so bad you know. you might actually like it after a while. but no worries i understand, i wouldn't force you to feel uncomfortable. he really is a good guy though and takes good care of me. seven sounds good. i don't mind either way, if you'd like to cook im fine with that. if you want to go out somewhere, that's cool too. i'm not picky

YOU HAVE REACHED VINCENT BENOIT, " i really just came for you and elsie, staying now kind of feels useless since i won't have either. i'll just cook then and maybe we can just catch up. "

i'm really sorry vince. i really am. i wish i could go back and just deal with my shit instead of giving her up. you might be able to get her back if you wanted? i dunno but i'm just so sorry that i didn't talk to you about it. i'm all right with that. i wouldn't mind catching up with you
