I was hoping it would’ve cleared out by now
Shouldn’t Denver be used to this?
One would think
Why does it have to snow in Denver in March?
It is still technically winter
I thought you were smart
Har-har
Only doing it because I can’t think about you not being here today
I know, babe
I’m so sorry
I’d be there if I could
I know
Sometimes I hate our jobs
They’re the fucking worst
But you know that I’ll be there in spirit
I know
And we’ll be able to celebrate when I get back
Let’s not get ahead of ourselves
I know things are going to go well and you’ll win
Knock on wood!
And when you do, dinner’s on you
And if I don’t win?
Dinner’s on me
I love you, Jasper
I know
I love you too
Ikeep reading the texts with Jasper from this morning. Rebecca sent a car to pick me up so I wouldn’t have to worry about any of the madness at the courthouse today. I smooth my hands down my tailored pants.
Black, wide-legged pants. White blouse with a ribbon tie at the top. Dark green blazer. I even picked out my pointiest heels to round out my suit of armor today. I’ll need everything possible to feel in control.
It’d be easier if Jasper were here, but I can’t think about that.
It’s a cold, gray morning as I’m dropped off in front of the courthouse. Press is already lingering outside. Of course they are. I’ve made a point to ignore all the entertainment channels these last few months because I didn’t want to hear what anyone was saying about the trial.
