Taking a boyfriend that doesn’t exist to a company Christmas party?
No.
Everyone here is in everyone’s business all the time. If Ididn’t like my job so much, I might leave. But architect jobs are hard to find in small-town Maine. Even this job isn’t in Moose Falls.
I could only fend off Sharon and her wanting to set me up with her cousin’s boyfriend’s best friend’s brother so many times before I snapped.
I’m not the type that likes to go out after work, so I didn’t see any harm in saying I had someone at home. They let it go.
It’s going to be even worse if I show up and I don’t have anyone. Crap. Well, maybe… I mean, this is why they have dating apps, right? Except the thought of getting on a dating app petrifies me.
I can’t show up dateless. There’s only a handful of people who would understand.
Ollie
Mayday! Mayday!
Hunter
What’s the emergency?
Why do you assume there’s an emergency?
Hunter
You texted mayday
Hunter
That is the universal sign for distress
I don’t know if it’s an emergency…
Griffin
What’s wrong?
I need your help
Something’s come up at work
Griffin
Just name the time and place
Griffin
We’ll be there

If Theo can peel himself away from his new boyfriend
Theo
Hey, don’t hate on me because I’m in love
