Good, as usual
Spent most of the night working on their books they’re writing for school
Were they able to get them done?
Done, colored, and ready to read to the class
Thanks. Appreciate it
I smileto myself as I loosen the knot in my tie when I enter my room. The girls had picture books to write and illustrate for their upcoming project. It was all about puppies, chess, and hockey.
A weird combination if you ask me, but puppies playing hockey and chess?
I’d read it.
Changing into a pair of athletic shorts and a red Knights hoodie, I slide into my tennis shoes and head back upstairs.
Marcus
I wish I could call you instead of hanging with the guys
Harper
You’ll be home soon enough
In three days
Feels like forever
Feels like it since I last saw you
It’s been a week
A week too long
It’samazing how easily she’s slotted herself back into my life. When we’re not together, we’re always texting.
I can’t wait to see you
Me too
I’ve got the girls Friday night, but want to do dinner and hang out after bed?
Hanging out? Is that what the kids are callingit these days?
If it gets you to come over, we can call it whatever you want
I’ll see you then
Locking my phone,I knock on Bode’s door. I can already hear shouts before Jasper pulls open the door. “Thanks for showing up. I won twenty bucks from Bode.”
I laugh, closing the door behind me. “Glad I could help you win.”
“I thought for sure you’d bail,” Bode tells me, slapping a twenty into Jasper’s palm.
“The chance to kick Bode’s ass in video games? I’ll always show up for that.”
Bode snorts. “Whatever you say.”
