“I’m not done. Thank you for everything. Especially for taking Mom and Rhonda and Val to your house and giving me space to deal with this. I don’t know what I would have done without you.”

She swiped a finger under her eye and sighed. “Fine. You can go out with Logan tonight.”

“Yes!” Andrew pumped a fist and jumped out of the car, leaving her sitting there, shaking her head.

“Sneaky bastard,” she muttered. “I just got played.”

Logan:What are you doing?

Jeni:Thinking about tacos.

Logan:That’s weird.

Jeni:A commercial for Mateo’s just came on TV. Now I want some.

Logan:Let’s go. I’ll meet you there.

Jeni:I already ate.

Logan:Come to McNellie’s later?

Jeni:No.

Logan: It wouldn’t be a date. Your brother’s coming.

Jeni:You’d still take advantage of the opportunity somehow, I’m sure.

Logan: Just come. It will be fun.

Jeni:There will be plenty of other women there. Have fun with them.

Logan:Seriously?

Jeni:Seriously.

Logan:Fine.

An hour later, once Jeni, her mom, and sisters had arrived back at her house, Jeni’s phone lit up.

Logan:I just got a woman’s number. Happy?

No.

Jeni:I don’t have feelings about it one way or another.

Logan:Liar

She so was.

Jeni:Is Andrew doing okay?

Logan:So far so good.
