A text from an unknown number chimed on my phone.
304-555-5555
Hey, I know we don’t really know each other
This is Jessie Miknevicius, Mikey’s wife
Oh, hey! Let me add your number. How’s it going?
This is awkward as hell, but my husband’s always up to something so I have a feeling I already know the answer
Do you have some kind of beef with me?
(facepalm emoji)
My husband is also always up to something
I have no beef with you, promise
Anyway, what did they do?
(pic of Jack on top of Mikey on the ground, though Mikey appears to be smiling)
sigh
Ben sent me this too
(pic of Mikey with blood running down the side of his face)
I honestly think he’s trying to show how brave he was for me
Who the fuck was Ben? Oh, right. Mikey’s real name. Hockey names would never cease to amaze me.
I would definitely put my money on them being up to something
Same
Good talk. Let’s get lunch sometime
