I listed a couple spots where I might have some.
Me
That works. If you find any,go for it.
Tad
When are you coming back? Are you coming back?
Me
I plan on staying for the semester, but I’ll be gone a lot. I’ll be back soon.
Tad
Okay. I’ll leave a new key for you in the planter. We’re getting it re-keyed this morning.
Me
Thanks.
Tad
I can’t believe you’re in a pack with a rockstar and a hockey player.
Me
Me neither.
Tad
Are you really selling your drug formula? Why man? Also, Clegg is big mad.
Me
The whole point was that it wasn’t on the drug test. I don’t feel like reformulating it. I don’t work for Clegg. He can find his own. Also, I’m selling it to CompassBioTek.
Tad
Shit, man. Really? I’d sell it to them, too.
I finished getting ready and I dropped in some of my group chats that I was looking for a puppy. Fiona was right. We needed a puppy. Maybe I couldn’t buy us a car, house, or furniture. But a puppy? That was something I could contribute to our household.
Down in the kitchen, Fiona and Saoirse were drinking coffee at the breakfast bar.
“Is there any coffee left?” I gave Fiona a kiss. I was a little afraid of our coffee pot. It was fancy and I could not afford to fix it if I broke it.
“There’s a little bit left, help yourself,” she replied.
I poured myself a cup of coffee and added cream and sugar.
“Did you want to take the car?” Fiona asked.
“It’s okay.” I shook my head. “I want to time out how long it would take me to get there on the subway. Dusty already helped me figure out how to get there and where on campus it is.”
Gulping my coffee, I gave her another kiss.
At the front door, I put on my shoes, which were now in some sort of shoe shelf. The flat top was a great place to put my backpack. My new coat hung on one of the hooks above it. It was tempting to get a label maker and put everybody’s name above their hook like I had growing up.
