Me: good, awkward, but good.
Me: loved your Kakadu photos earlier. Looked like a great trip
Ari: Tour was fantastic and worth every cent. But feels a bit weird catching up on the fires while I’ve been playing tourist. Cody sounded exhausted when I called the fam today. Almost wanted to drive back home to help.
Ari: But enough of fires, what did Santa bring?
Me: Ha. Mum found our old stockings in the linen cupboard and hung them on the fireplace. Now I know what the two random nails in the mantlepiece are for.
Me: she stuffed our stocking with chocolate, socks and jocks. And they gave me a new welcome mat for the front door. I think that makes me officially middle aged now?
Me: bro gave me a gift card.
Ari: hahaha! my fam gave me money since I’m way over here at the mo
Ari: Ash said she has a present for me when I get back.
Ari: My gifts haven’t arrived yet, ugh. Glad you got my shell before Christmas. Ash is pregnant and both her and Cody are glowing. Bit of a bombshell dropped over the Christmas call. Going to be a low key courthouse ceremony after they see his family in Canada. They fly Boxing Day
Me: Not surprised to hear they are tying the knot. And that’s awesome re Ash! Aunty Ari has a nice ring to it
Ari: it does. Of course now I have to buy all the cute baby things as I travel.
Ari: So, it was news to me: you and Ash text as well?
Me: we’re colleagues, Ari …
Ari: you’ve never mentioned it
Me: I didn’t? It’s only been recent. Ash has been on my back to improve my home cooking. I baked a ham for Christmas dinner today and the fam said it was a success
Me: and Mum saw your card and the shell and there was an inquisition about who Ari was
Ari: Ohhhh what did you say?
Ari: just a little something from my sext pal
She’d signed that card with a love heart with her name in it. Did that mean something more than sext pals?
Me: the old mates at the pub call you my ‘lady friend’
Ari: hahaha! do they call your male friends ‘man friends’?
Me: I’m not sexting any of my man pals
Ari: speaking of … do you have privacy tonight? Or are walls thin between you and your parents?
Me: folks are retired to the van. Bro is camping in backyard. I have the place to myself. No baths while they are here but I’m in bed and alone
Ari: video call or photos?
The idea of being busted by Mum and Dad coming into the house to use the bathroom while I had my dick in hand on a naked video call to Ari did not help set the mood.
Me: what if we sent each other short videos?
Me: send me a cheeky little striptease. I’ll return one. I’ll even wear my Santa hat.
Ari: Tis the season to strip in a Santa hat *winky face emoji*
