My face reddens even though none of them can see me. Discussing my love life in a text thread is seriously the worst. I’m going to have to see it every time I open my messaging for the next week.
Alix
When do we getto meet her, Keat?
Evan
Wait, if you are staying through the weekend, you won’t be here for the board meeting on Friday.
Yeah, I was going to talk to you about that. Just not here.
Evan
Okay, fine. I get that. I’ll come talk to you in a minute.
Can’t wait.
Alix
You didn’t answer my question.
She starts back into school next week and works full time, so her schedule doesn’t allow much travel.
Shay
What about Thanksgiving???
It’s a little far out to be deciding that.
Anyway…can we do dinner this weekend?
At this point, I’m kind of committed. If I rebook my flight, it will be significantly more expensive than when I originally bought it. Nope. I’ve charted my course, and I now must follow it through. Regardless of whether Poppy asks me or not.
Shay
Yep. We can rearrange some things. Tonight works best for us.
Lowell
Why not tomorrow?
Evan
We were hoping to leave town for the weekend.
Lowell
Again? You were gone last weekend. Where are you going?
Evan
None of your business.
Shay
Nantucket. If we have dinner tonight, we can leave first thing in the morning and still have a few days. But if that won’t work, we can reschedule the trip.
