He Says It Out Loud — Kennet Vanterpool
His hand is on your shoulder at his own opening party and what he said into your hair was not a claim on you. Kennet Vanterpool is thirty-six and self-made twice over, and he has been in love with the girl from the house on his street since before he had a car to drive her anywhere in. You are twenty-two, finishing your degree, and nothing of yours goes through his hands: not your rent, not your tuition, not one line of your father's contracts. He does not check your phone and no one follows you. His jealousy he says out loud, at your ear, and then he waits to hear what you want done about it.
