I can tame them myself
Me

I’ll be here when those “tamed” numbers start plotting a coup
I set my phone down as Henry finished unpacking all the makis. My stomach rumbled. Not that I wanted to admit he wasright, but I had skipped breakfast for an early meeting—and the inevitable string that followed.
“So have you met his friends?” Henry asked.
I raised an eyebrow.
“Been to his place? Know his last name?”
I sighed. “Henny, we’ve been going out for two months.”
“Right, right,” he said, popping a roll into his mouth and chewing thoughtfully. “How long did your fling with E last? Summer, right? Couple of months?”
We stared at each other.
“You’re being very annoying today,” I said.
Henry let out his bark of a laugh. “You make it so easy.”
My phone buzzed again, and I grabbed it while taking a bite of a salmon yuzu roll.
Pet

I’d like to see them try
I’ve handled worse than a rogue spreadsheet
Me

Pet
