Chapter 35. U-Haul Lesbian

"Can you make time for the day after tomorrow? Let's have a dinner," Madelyn asked her daughter over the phone.

 

"Oh, you're back in the US?" Rayleigh asked, her brow furrowing slightly. "Isabelle is in town for a week."

"Matthew is back?" Rayleigh's voice held a hint of hesitation, and Madelyn could feel the weight of her daughter's concerns; she could feel how important Isabelle was to her.

 

"Look, he wanted to say something to you. And I believe Isabelle isn't the same as Lauren; that girl is bright, and she loves you a lot," Madelyn reassured her.

 

Rayleigh took a deep breath, her mind racing with a thousand thoughts. "I know, mom." Rayleigh said, her voice tinged with uncertainty.
