Chapter 49

Shortly after arriving at work, Paige glanced down to see she had a text from David.

DAVID: Thanks again for letting me crash in your guest room.

PAIGE: You’re welcome. How are you feeling?

DAVID: I’m really hung over, actually. Wine does it to me every time, especially when I almost empty a bottle on my own.

DAVID: And I have a newborn baby photo shoot in an hour. Just kill me now.

PAIGE: Oh, my God, that’s funny.

PAIGE: But I really meant how are you feeling after our talk?

DAVID: I’m fine, for the most part. How are you feeling?

PAIGE: I’m fine.

DAVID: So … when do I get to hear the good stuff?

PAIGE: The good stuff?

DAVID: Your recovery. That’s the good stuff.

PAIGE: You want to hear about that?

DAVID: It’s part of your story, isn’t it?

PAIGE: That’s actually the weird part of my story.

DAVID: Then I definitely want to hear it.

PAIGE: It might get a little awkward.

DAVID: Now I need to hear it as soon as possible. Check your schedule and get back to me.

PAIGE: All right.

DAVID: Also, was the offer to raid your storage unit legit?

PAIGE: Yes, it was legit.

DAVID: Okay, thanks. I’ll plan on going there in the very near future.

PAIGE: Go for it. And I meant it when I said you could take everything.

She texted the storage facility address to him, along with the code to her unit. Then, for good measure, she sent a gif of a screaming baby.
