JJ: Harper says Hope Speaks is helping with Piper’s therapies?

Me: Are you asking for the details, or are you asking what we told Harper?

JJ: Motherfucker. I know we agreed that you staying neutral would be better, all things considered, but lying is what got me into this situation to begin with.

Me: No one has lied. Some things are just being left vague.

JJ: GIF of a man beating his head against a desk.

Me: Look she seems less uptight and stressed right?

JJ: I guess…

Me: And I guarantee the kids are happier. I see them every day.

JJ: Rub it in man. You said you’d help me get more time with them and fix this fucking mess of a family.

Me: I am. I swear. Trust me.

Mama: You’ll be home for Thanksgiving?

Me: Of course. I need some of my favorite chocolate cream pie.

Mama: JJ had just mentioned a trip to Tahiti with some other ball players.

Me: Yeah I ended up canceling that.

Mama: Oh really? That doesn’t sound like my boy.

Me: Just got some stuff here.

Mama: Would stuff happen to be a girl?

Me: Don’t start again Mama.
