Just heading to the bar now :) Shouldn’t you be asleep?

Me

It’s only eight thirty…

Danil

Exactly ;)

Me

I’m not that much of a grandma!

Danil

I had fun at lunch today… I always enjoy our little catch ups. Same time next week?

Me

Definitely!

I cringe at how eager I sound after I hit send.

Me

I wanted you to know that I’m staying at Zara’s for a bit. I’m having some maintenance done on my apartment.

I watch the three dots appear and disappear a few times, and I tense.

Can he tell that I’m lying?

Danil knows me well, but surely not that well?

Danil

Good luck trying to study with the twins running around…

I let out a breath of relief and quickly type out a reply.

Me

It will be interesting, that’s for sure!

Danil

I’m happy to come and entertain them so you can study.

Me

That’s really sweet, but you don’t have to do that.

Danil

I want to. They love hanging out with Uncle Danil. Besides, you know I’ll always help you. All you have to do is ask…

Me

I know.
