On the way to L.A. from Vegas, I realized I had a message on social media from Zell. I hadn't heard from her sincethatday.
I sucked in a breath. "Zell sent me a message."
"She did? What did she say?" Ric asked as he looked at me in the rearview mirror.

Hey, Erin. Frankie set me up with social media. How are you doing?
"She wants to know how I am. I'll message her back."

Oh my gosh, sweetie. It's so good to hear from you. I'm doing well. How are you?
I kept checking for a reply as we drove. Finally, I received one.

I'm doing good. Tired a lot. We're moving to California.
I sucked in a breath. "Zell said they're moving to California too."
"Really?" Ric questioned.
"I wonder why."
Erin Moreland

We're almost to California ourselves. Why are you moving there?
Zell Hughes

You're moving there too?!?! Frankie is going to go to college there in the fall. We should get together when we move.
Erin Moreland

We should. We're moving to L.A.
