Jenner

After meeting Alivia and spending a little time with her, I’d say she wouldn’t want you to do that.

Me

That’s why I didn’t.

Jenner

After her concept proves to be successful—and I know it will—then you can throw the owner an offer on the entire commercial strip. Rental income could help fund her business.

Me

I like how you think.

Jenner

Landlord signed. Congratulations, you two. You have yourself a restaurant.

Alivia

AHHHHH. YESSSSSS.

Me

Fuck yes.

Alivia

I can’t thank you enough, Jenner. You’ve been amazing. Seriously, best message ever.

Jenner

Happy to help out, always.

Alivia

If we weren’t at work, I’d be jumping into your arms. Screaming more AHHHHHHS!

Me

Screaming?

Alivia

I’ll make one exception to my rule, and that’s this moment right now.

Me

You’d better do just that the second everyone clears out of Charred tonight.

Alivia

Deal.

Me

Baby, I’m so happy about Jenner’s news.
