4: the deal

man·u·mit
to free from slavery or bondage; emancipate.

I get it, I do. I know why you chose him. He gives you comfort, security, routine. He cares for you the way you wish your father had; he provides you the space and support for you to live your own life, find your own identity. Someone who's been there. Someone to teach you maturity. Something to schedule into your life.

What I want to give you is something to schedule your life around. I would put you on a rollercoaster, to take you to heights you could never imagine, and drag you down into depression you've never dreamed of; I can give you happiness and pain that will put poetry in place of your simple life, that will shatter your "identity." I haven't been there, but I can learn with you. I can give both of us something to live for.

Stay with him in luxury, or come with me on an adventure. Whatever you want - it's yours, or it's ours.
