Jamie

She’s a person. Not some crazy town gossip.

Lucky

Does she really have a kid now?

Ryker

Kaleigh

How do you sort of have a kid?

Ryker

She has a kid. It’s just not hers.

Dillan

Umm . . . Okay, I think.

Jamie

It’s a long story, and it’s not ours to tell. But she’s taking care of her baby sister, and she’s staying with us for a while. So unless you want a baby at a bar, she won’t be coming to book club any time soon.

Lexie

So we just bring book club to your house!

Kaleigh

Great idea.

Jamie

No.

Dillan

We’ll see about that . . .

JAMIE

Yo dude.

Trainer’s coming to the house tomorrow morning. Eight a.m.

And a wife who likes it when I’m in her bed in the morning.
