Warily, I took his phone from his hand and started reading. I wondered if he could listen to my beating heart, because it sounded to me like a fast-hitting gong.
Ben: Can u get to AIO? I might neef a drivrr home.
Mia:are you there for the trivia?? I hadn’t pegged u for a trivia guy. You live and learn.
Mia:wait why u writing drunk? Is everything ok?
Mia: Hank, Danny, and Jimmy just texted. Don’t leave, I’m coming.
A few hours later, a new stream of messages.
Ben: no need to pick me up. I’m already home.
Mia: are u freaking kidding me with this? Who do u think brought your sorry ass home?
And then started the voice messages.
Mia:I cannotbelieve you threw up on me. How much did you freaking drink? Disgusting. Disgusting!
Mia:I’m gonna pick your favorite shirt to wear. Then I’m going home and dressing Hugo in it.
Mia: Your washing machine is a joke, by the way.
Mia:I’m so pissed at you right now. Not to mention puked. I can’t believe the stunt you pulled today.
Mia: I’m bringing Hugo when you’re not home, and I’m letting him hump aaalll your pillows. Then I’ll have him lick your silverware. And shed on your bed and couch.
Mia: I hope you hit your littlest toe on the table.
Mia:I’m sorry, the last one was uncalled for.
Mia: Look, I know you must be scared. You’re about to become a father, and that’s huge. But you’re not alone. You guys have the whole family to help you with this. Besides, it’s about time we have another kid around.
A few hours later, if I wasn’t mistaken, right after I left his place that fateful morning:
Mia:you’re such a jerk.
Mia: I hope you know what you’re doing because it seems to me you’re actively ruining something good.
Mia:YOU TOOK MY CAR???
Later that day:
Ben:Thank you. For everything.
Ben: and I’m sorry.
Mia: this is what family is for. Nothing to be sorry. About me, anyway. You have some good groveling to do about Isabella. Have u started yet?
Ben:no. I don’t know how. And I wanna give her some time.
Mia:just don’t give too much time. Don’t let him rule your life anymore.
Him?
Mia:just go for her. For them. Man, you’re becoming a father *surprised cradling face emoji* *heart emoji*
Ben:That’s scary af.
