Morgan Balavage

We became close friends, and then we were like a trio, the boyfriend and Blair and I. We would go out to shows, We would go to this 24-hour coffee shop called Bauhaus, and she needed a job, so I got her a job at my bank. And the bosses were cool with us working together, so they stationed us next to each other. So life without a college degree was great. I was having so much fun.

It was about a month after she started work that Blair asked to meet me at the hurricane by myself, which was strange. I asked the boyfriend if he knew what she wanted to talk to me about, and he had no idea. So when I showed up at the hurricane and walked in and sat down, she had a very serious look on her face. I knew something was terribly wrong.

I thought maybe her mother was sick or something. When I sat down, she said, Morgan, I have something to tell you, and it's hard for me to say. You slept with your boyfriend. And my blood ran cold, but at the same time, this fiery rage started to rise up in me. And I had this cup of coffee in front of me, and I considered, like, throwing it in her face. Like, was this what the moment called for?

But instead, I sat frozen as she slid a letter across the table to me. And as I considered my options, my only option was to run away. And so that's what I did. I grabbed the letter, and I ran out of the hurricane crying. When I got to my car, I opened the letter, and it said, I hope we can still be friends. Which, no. I drove to where my boyfriend worked. He was a cook at 13 Coins.

And I was so angry, but also so desperate for it to not be true that when I pulled into the parking lot and met him in the back of the restaurant, I begged him, tell me it isn't true. And initially he lied to me and he said he had no idea what I was talking about. But I knew that he was lying, and I flicked my cigarette at him. And he admitted that it was true. I was devastated.

I drove home crying to the apartment where I hadn't slept in months. I woke up crying, I drove to work crying, and I ran into another coworker who asked me what was wrong, and I told her, and she said, Morgan, you're just going to have to get through it. And the way I got through it was I stonewalled her. I just completely ignored her. And like, I have a natural resting bitch face.

And I was giving her the full-on, on-purpose bitch face. And we didn't have to interact that much, but at this point in my banking career, I had gotten a few promotions. I was the senior vault teller, which meant that I was responsible for all of the cash, hundreds of thousands of dollars in the back vault.

And if a bank teller was running low on cash in their drawer, they would have to give me some paperwork so that I could go get the cash to replenish their drawer. And so when Blair would give me her paperwork, I would just grab it from her and just like throw the cash at her. And it was so petty when I was 18 years old. This went on for months.
