Refreshing.

You out of your meeting yet?

No

Mustn’t be a very important meeting if you’re texting me.

Or I’d just rather speak to a friend.

Ok, there’s something I need to clarify so I don’t make even more of a fool of myself than I did last Friday night. When you said you want us to be friends, did you mean friends friends—the kind who braid each other’s hair, paint nails, and have slumber parties? Or friendly acquaintances?

Hm…

The slumber party kind.

Glad we cleared that up. By the way, you didn’t answer my question. How are you?

2:05PM

Amused by this conversation. Mostly just glad you’re talking to me.

2:30 PM

Or at least you were talking to me. Where did you go?

Jordan 2:59 PM

I was rehearsing a dance routine. Then I went for a sauna and shower. You still in your meeting?

6:23 PM

Finally going home. Trying to decide what to cook for dinner. What are you having for dinner?

I ordered mushroom risotto from room service.

That sounds good. I’ll make that for myself.

Jealous of your cooking skills. My parents never taught me to cook.

That’s probably why you destroy your eggs with those condiments.

Hey, the way I serve my eggs is delicious. It’s one of the only good things I can cook.

I’ll teach you to cook.

Jordan 6:26 PM

Really? That would be nice.

9:13 PM

How was the risotto?

9:13 PM

Good. I was going to message you again but I didn’t know if it would be overkill.

We’ve been texting for most of the day. I’d say we’ve passed the stage of overkill.
