Dead Stars (2012)
“She never understood why. There was always a tension there; she told herself it was a blood thing, something in the blood. They’d been estranged for years. She knew he was living with a girl in Brooklyn, that he was a paparazzo. She knew that he moved to the West Coast a few years ago. She knew he was a drug addict.
She knew, she knew, she knew . . .
. . . that Jerry was in touch with his stepfather, Jerilynn’s dad, & when her kid ran away—Is that what I should call it?—she called Ronny... to get Jerry Jr.’s cellphone #. Ronny still lived in New York, working (fitfully) as a DP. When she told Ronny their daughter was pregnant, all he said was, “Oh. Wow.” He sounded depressed.
She had a feeling Jerilynn might turn to her brother for help. She hoped so, anyway, because she’d been beside herself. She was grateful when Jerry Jr. left a message (an unexpected kindness) that she was with him, & was fine.MoreLess
