I was. I work for Jamie’s foundation now. It became too difficult with fans showing up at my clinic, trying to get closer to Jamie. We felt it was best for our well-being if I took a job where I could still work with animals, but in a safer setting.
Audrey
I’m adding you to a group text now. The other woman is Cassie Dawson. She’s married to Gabe Dawson, who just retired from the Denver Wolves. She’s unhappily part of the guinea pig parent club.
Me
Unhappily?
Audrey
Gabe lost a bet and had to adopt a guinea pig.
Audrey Carrington adds Layla Holmes to Piggie Pets group.
Audrey
Alright, be on your best behavior, ladies. We don’t want to scare Layla off just yet.
Cassie
Are you here willingly as a guinea pig parent, or were you forced into it?
Me
Uh, willingly?
Cassie
Well, fuck. I was really hoping you would be on my side, so we could team up against Becca and Audrey.
Becca
I wasn’t too sure of the pigs when I first married Jacob, but now I love them. Give it time, Cass. You’ll come around.
Me
Who’s Jacob?
Becca
Oh, that’s my husband. Everyone else calls him Jax. I’m the only one who gets to call him Jacob.
Audrey
Yes, it’s as disgustingly cute as you think it is.
Becca
I make no apologies. So Layla! Tell us about your piggies.
Me
Okay. I have two girls, named Muriel and Marilyn.
Cassie
