Chapter Forty-Six
Sasha: Everything’s ready on my end. Oh, I can’t wait until we can meet up in person instead of over text.
Brenda: I can’t wait either! And not a moment too soon! Things are very strange with the kids.
Sasha: What do you mean? I thought things were going well since the last time we spoke? I even called Brennon back to the city.
Brenda: That was you?
Sasha: Yup. Now that Brennon’s gone, there’s nothing in their way.
Brenda: Nothing but themselves apparently.
Sasha: What do you mean?
Brenda: Viking is cooking breakfast for your daughter…
Sasha: ARE THEY THAT SERIOUS!? IS SHE SLEEPING OVER ALREADY?
Brenda: No, no. Nothing like that. He’s packing an extra lunch box for her.
Sasha: Packing a…what?
Brenda: A lunch box. My son cooks amazingly well and packs Gordie’s lunches every day.
Sasha: That’s so sweet. But it’s not aggressive enough.
Brenda: What would you like him to do, Sasha? Back her up against a wall and declare his undying love?
Sasha: Cordelia gets very much in her head about things. He’ll need to!
Brenda: He’s taking his time.
Sasha: How do you even know those lunches are for my daughter?
Brenda: The ladies at The Pink Garage shared a picture of it.
Sasha: Well, I suppose that’s progress. Have they met up at all?
Brenda: Viking hasn’t invited her back to the house yet.
Sasha: Maybe they’re meeting secretly.
Brenda: I would have heard it, Sasha. Renthrow would need a babysitter.
Sasha: Right, right.
Brenda: But he’s with Gordie from the moment she’s finished school until she goes to sleep at night.
Sasha: Well, maybe they meet for lunch?
Brenda: I thought the same so I went to the stadium pretending to have an errand. Viking was there with the trainees. I heard he eats with them too.
Sasha: Oh dear. Why the sudden standstill?
Brenda: It’s like they’re determined to make this difficult when it should be easy.
Sasha: They’re both so stubborn.
Brenda: When are you coming to town so we can proceed with the second plan?
Sasha: Tonight. I’ll be ready.
Brenda: So will I.
Sasha: :D
Brenda: With how hard we’re working, they better get married and have lots of grandkids fast.
Sasha: Amen to that!
