I'm sorry?

I can't make this shit up.

So he wants his finances in order before he potentially dies on a cruise trip.

You're not going to believe this… I just looked it up and there have been 750 reported deaths on a cruise trip between 2000 and last month. So, maybe he has the right idea.

That's fun to know.

But hey, meeting should be done in about two hours or so. Text you in a bit.

Sounds good :)

5:41pm

Sooo… that went way longer than it should have. On my way back to the airport now.

I was wondering if you'd forgotten about me. Or if you'd been eaten by a shark.

When's your flight?

I could never forget about you. But in an hour from now.

Wow, so you won't be home till close to midnight?

Welcome to my life.

How often do you have to do stuff like this?

Maybe once or twice every other month. Most of my clients are on the east coast but some of them have properties around the states, even the world.

Sometimes they call and I must go.

What have you been doing with your day?

I'm actually kind of jealous you get to travel as much, even if it is for work.

And I've just been catching up on some notes for my tests next week.

I bet you're gonna do such a good job on your tests.

But speaking of travel…

Have you thought about my offer?

I have. And I'm still conflicted.

How come?

I just worry that it won't work out. I really want to see you but what if we hate each other and everything gets ruined.

I won't let that happen, Weslyn. And if you decide that it's not what you want to do anymore, I'll have no problems ending the visit early.

What if you realize you don't actually like me. What if we can't… connect.

You're right. It's a strange scenario we're in. But I wouldn't take this risk if I didn't think I'd enjoy my time with you. I think we'll connect just fine, Weslyn.

But it's all up to you.
