Chapter 62
Chad helped Topher study for several hours, quizzing him on every aspect of the company he was interviewing to intern with and a whole bunch of technical stuff that Chad didn’t understand. After Topher went back to his apartment, Chad called his parents to see how his dad was doing.
His dad was doing fine, though he hated his new diet. Chad evaded their questions when they asked about Peter, and they soon got the hint that he didn’t want to talk about it.
“We love you,” his mom said before they hung up, his dad repeating the words in the background. Chad felt his heart warm, missing them.
“Love you too,” he said, putting the phone down and ending the call.
Still feeling tired and worn out, emotionally and physically, he decided to make an early night of it.
