Teagan Audition

The speaker is frustrated with someone named Jackson, who is not pulling their weight and relies on the speaker to provide for both of them. Jackson has become a different person since the death of their daughter and uses alcohol to cope. The speaker has found someone, referred to as "Riggs," who understands their situation and is planning to leave Jackson. The speaker expresses gratitude to the listener for their support and acknowledges that the Jackson problem needs to be addressed. They are willing to do whatever it takes to protect themselves, even if it means confronting or eliminating Jackson. A deal has been made with the listener to handle the situation. I don't know who you are, but you stay away from him, you hear? Jackson? He's happy to sit on his ass and let me do all the damn work. Oh, you assume he sells the corn he picks on our lawn. Well, it's not enough to make a meaningful amount of cash. I'm the one who puts the food on the table for the both of us. Ever since our daughter's past, he's not been the same guy I fell in love with. He thinks burying his head in a bottle will solve his problems. Thing is, it's not all about him. Riggs gets that, and that is why I am leaving. How glad I am to hear that, stranger. After everything you've done for us, I'd hate for us to end up killing each other. This Jackson problem won't go away anytime soon, though. We need to deal with it, one way or another. Convince him to stop, or put him in the ground if it comes to that. And no, it sounds cold, talking about my husband that way, but it's him or us. I'll pay whatever he's paying. We got a deal.
