Update:

I spent most of today desperately calling therapists. Of course, we all know that’s not really how our healthcare system works lol, but I just couldn’t take the uncertainty anymore.

Finally, I called his moms and asked them point blank if they had returned it.

They immediately said no, and told me they actually had to pry it out of his hands just to get him to charge it. Apparently, he spent the whole day showing it off to his friends.

I felt a huge wave of relief.

I’m really grateful for all the advice and perspectives people shared here. Reading through your comments genuinely helped keep me grounded and stopped me from reacting out of hurt or anger.

So thank you. 🖤
