"Hey, Freckles." I bite my lip and screw my face up as my ribs burn, taking a deep breath before continuing. "I'm so sorry. I'm so fucking sorry for not knowing what you went through or giving you a chance to explain what happened. I should have heard you out. I should have stayed. But you need to listen." I wince and pull the phone away, so she can't hear my groan of pain. "They know who you are, and what we were. They're going to come for you. Please. Please, baby, you need to run. Run, and don't you dare turn back. Get away from all of them. You… you hear m-me?" My eyes close, and my phone slides out of my hand, but I quickly grab it. "Please hide, please."
"I n-never stopped loving you. I will… will always lo-love you, Freckles. Go, live your life and be free. Meet someone who can tr-treat you ri-ight. For-for-forget me."
