Gemma:

He’s up to something.

I’m pleasantly surprised when Gemma answers straightaway, as her phone reception is always terrible.

Candy:

I’m interrogating Brayden when he gets home later.

Bree:

I’ll ask Troy, too.

Me:

Is it not weird that he doesn’t hate me? He hasn’t said a nasty word or questioned what happened last week.

Bree:

Maybe a little.

Kourtney:

I agree, but I think it’s lovely he’s trying.

Gemma:

And so romantic.

Which he was in the beginning. He’s always been attentive and given me everything I wanted, as well as things I never dreamed of having. Only, I always craved time with him more than any amount of material things.

I take another sip of wine.

Me:

Can you ask Brayden and Troy about his job? He said he had taken time off, but I don’t believe him. Can you find out what happened with management?

Bree:

Of course, I want to find out too.

Bree does love good gossip. She knows everything about everyone on the hockey team. Mainly to keep an eye on Britney, the old puck bunny who hung around the team when Ash and I were dating, because she doesn’t trust her around any of the guys.

Her fascination with the team is borderline obsessive. She spends an unhealthy amount of time on social media talking about them. I understand social media is part of her position, however, she’s already been given two warnings by personnel for releasing a press release earlier than planned, and for taking a candid photo of one of the players getting changed in the lockers, then posting it, asking fans if they should do a Christmas calendar. All without consent from the player or approval of the head of marketing. One more mistake and Ash thinks she’s at risk of losing her position with the team.

I don’t dislike many people, but that girl gives me bad vibes. I don’t trust her.

Kourtney:

Enjoy your evening and let us know what happens.

Bree:

I want all the details.

I laugh to myself.

Me:
