Bas:

Don’t feel obligated to accept

I would honestly rather play delivery man over going home though. This family friend really doesn’t need to be babysat anyway.

Syve:

Ah, so it’s a “help me, help you to help me” kind of thing?

Bas:

Pleaseeee, I’ll beg on my knees if I have to!

Syve shook her head, smiling and looked around the kitchen. It would not be the end of the world if she had to make a peanut butter sandwich for dinner—actually she loved peanut butter—but Kayla might not agree.

Surely there would be no harm in taking him up on his offer—and hewasoffering; it was entirely his idea.

Relenting, she shot a quick message to Cameron asking if it was okay to have a friend swing by with dinner. Cam immediately replied.

Cam:

Friend?!

That’s…suspicious.

Wait! It’s that mysterious man Aimi keeps talking about, isn’t it?!

You better let that man bring you food, Syve Aislin or I swear!

Kayla sleeps like a rock

Guest room is open…just saying…

Syve:

OMG Cam

Cam proceeded to send a slew of obscene gifs and strings of suggestive emojis to which Syve physically face palmed.

Syve:

Okay.

I’ll call in the order, do you want anything? My treat

Bas:

Don’t be mad…

I’ve never eaten there before

Syve:

Excuse me?! I take personal offense to that.

I’ll order for you.

I hope you’re hungry.
