Chapter 14

Good morning. I hope you slept as well as I did.Although it was a text message, her sarcasm was not lost on me.

Good afternoon. I slept like a baby.

That makes me incredibly happy, was her quick reply.

I looked up from my phone to be sure that my brother wasn’t tearing the house down and I found him sitting on the floor, a tower of colorful blocks reaching almost his height. I wondered why it made her happy that I slept well. Before I could formulate a reply, she texted me back.

Do you want to come tomy house later? There’s something I wanted to talk about, but in person.
