MEL (4:18 pm): And sorry, I regret everything
NICK (4:18 pm): I don’t
ANTHONY (4:18 pm): I’m watching you two reverse-flirt or whatever it is you’re doing. Can’t talk much. Hiding my phone during “family time.”
ANTHONY (4:19 pm): Sorry, answering your question, Mel.
MEL (4:19 pm): We know how chats work. How’s the rev
ANTHONY (4:19 pm): She’s fine thanks. Wants to see you in church more.
MEL (4:20 pm): That’s just bc she loves me more than you
ANTHONY (4:20 pm): Why isn’t Sara in the chat?
MEL (4:20 pm): Oh snap
NICK (4:20 pm): Wait, what?
MEL (4:20 pm): Like she’d answer anyway
ANTHONY (4:21 pm): She wasn’t at school today, either.
TRINA (4:21 pm): I left Sara off because we need to talk about what to do and I don’t want her shutting us down.
TRINA (4:24 pm): So... what are we going to do?
ANTHONY (4:25 pm): I’m going. Whatever anyone else decides.
TRINA (4:25 pm): Me too.
NICK (4:25 pm): I was already planning on it. Vanessa wants to go. Going out for dinner in a few minutes, then out ghost hunting.
MEL (4:26 pm): Sorry, have to—NICKY HAS A GIIIIRLFRIEEEEEND.
NICK (4:26 pm): Is there a middle finger emoji? Wait. Found it. [redacted]
MEL (4:27 pm): I don’t see what the point is. It’s not like anything is going to happen. And besides, I have a date.
