Chapter 40

“Yeah,” said Devin, then, “No. Uh huh. Look, he’s back, so I—yeah, I’ll ask. Love you. Bye.”

“Mom?” asked Dom, checking his email. Mount Angus Brewing Company Newsletter but nothing else. He should really think about getting a club card there. He bought enough of their beer for it.

“You should really put a password on that. You want those kids checking out your porn?”

“You were the one who moved my laptop,” said Dom, catching on immediately. He glared at Devin. “You went looking through my shit?”

Devin curled his lip at him.

“Don’t leave it out then. And you know you did wrong if you’re embarrassed.”

“I’m not embarrassed,” said Dom, snapping the laptop closed. “You look like you are. And you sound like Mom.”

“She’s right about some things,” said Devin. Dom rolled his eyes.

“What did she want you to ask me?”

“She wanted to know if you’d come down for New Year’s. She misses you. We all do.”
