Rio:You’re too funny. I’m glad all is good in the Oren nether regions.
Oren:LOL. So am I. I’m relieved actually.
Rio:Me, too. I just found you. I don’t want to lose you.
Oren:You won’t. I’m not going anywhere. We have a lot to do. Plus, we still need to meet in person.

Rio:Can I ask you a question?
Oren:Of course. I keep telling you, you can ask me anything.
Rio:Have you ever been back to Locust Hollow?
Oren:No. Why on earth would I do that?
Rio:Would you go if I asked you to?
Oren:What’s going on?
Rio:Our 40threunion is in June and I’m going. I’ll be staying with Mr. Fabricant for a few weeks. I need to get away from Vi for a bit. Mr. Fabricant is taking a cross-country trip and will begone most of the summer. He’s letting me stay at his house for free in exchange for watering his plants and cutting the grass.
Oren:Is everything in his house still wrapped in plastic?
Rio:Yes. But it’s clean and quiet. I could use some peace.
Oren:I bet.
Rio:So, I was thinking it would be really nice if we could finally meet in person.
Oren:You want to meet in person?
Rio:Yeah. Don’t you? I love our chats, but I really, really want to see you.
Oren:OK.
Rio:OK, what?
Oren:OK. I’ll go.
Rio:YIPPEE.

Oren:I saw your Facebook post from yesterday. You OK?
Rio:Yeah. Some asshole hit my car.
Oren:That sucks. Assholes are everywhere. How’s the car?
Rio:My Subaru is a tank. But the bumper and headlights need to be replaced.
Oren:I know money is tight so let me know if you need me to cover the cost of repairs.
Rio:I’m touched by your offer, but the asshole’s insurance is covering it.
Oren:OK.
