Star seemed confident. I told her everything, and she said she’d be in touch soon. I can only wait it out and hope for the best
Me
That’s great. The sooner we find Erica, the sooner we can get to the bottom of it
AJ
I’m scared, Bronc. This is so out of character for her. What if she’s in some serious trouble, or worse?
Me
You can’t think like that. Sit tight and once Star finds something, we can go from there
The gray bubble fades in and out, and I wait for her next message.
AJ
Olive and I are having pizza for dinner, would you like to join us?
My heart quickens at the idea of spending more time with her so soon.
Me
Sure, I’d like that
AJ
Come over around 6, it’s a school night so Olive goes to bed at 8
Me
Okay, did you want me to pick up the pizzas on my way?
AJ
You don’t have to do that
Me
I don’t mind, just send me what you’d like
AJ
That’s sweet of you
Me
Sweet’s my middle name, Princess
AJ
Olive asked if you can bring Titan. I know he’s not great with people he doesn’t know, but he’s good with kids. She’d love to meet him
Me
I can bring him, but she’ll probably take one look at him and scream
