Did you get abducted?
Do I need to call the cops?
Me
No, I’m fine. Did you
know that your idiot
brother hasn’t gotten
a suit for the wedding
yet?
Ellie Bear
Yep. He told me this
morning. I seriously
can’t believe him.
You know what, yeah, I
can. He’s a dunce. Did he
kidnap you?
Me
Yup. Sitting at this
really nice men’s shop
waiting for him to
pick a damn suit so I
can go the hell home.
Ellie Bear
Tell him to hurry up. I
need you.
Me
What’s wrong? Are
you okay?
Three dots appear as Ellie begins to type back, but before I can see what she said, Holland walks out of the dressing room dressed in an elegant black suit that makes me feel some type of way.
“Well?” he asked, spreading his arms dramatically. “Do I look like someone who has their life together?”
I can’t help the snort that comes out of me. “Sure, if your life is about attending business meetings and arguing over spreadsheets.”
