Elon and Vivian faced off for the first time in longer than either father or daughter could remember.
“Elon,” Vivian said.
Elon opened his mouth, but Vivian raised her hand.
“Don’t even start if you’re going to call me by that name,” she said.
Elon snapped his mouth shut and nodded.
“What’s this about?” Vivian asked.
Elon tossed Billie’s dossier on the desk.
“You know.”
Vivian grinned.
“So, you figured it out. I didn’t think you had the brainpower to.”
“You are my spawn,” Elon spat, “so I am giving you one chance to stop all this.”
“Or what?”
“Elimination.”

The steps to losing a child
Step One: Lose a child. Not what anyone wants to happen and nothing you can do to change it, but you can go through steps to becoming happy again. You can go through steps to loving again. You can go through steps to become a new you because after losing a child you will never be the same person you once were.

*** I'm keen to republish the interviews I did for my series with Vocal creators. It's been a few years and I thought it might be nice to revisit these wonderful conversations. I'll be releasing them one at a time for a few weeks/months.
