Chapter 32
Rori
THAT SUNDAY NIGHT
MAGGIE: So how was it with Landon today when he came to the cottage? I hope you made him grovelllll.
RORI: Not my style, Mags.
RORI: But he didn’t do anything really wrong anyways.
MAGGIE: Yeah, true.
MAGGIE: Seriously, was it okay? You okay?
RORI: Sort of? I mean, we avoided the huge elephant in the room.
MAGGIE: Oh wait, you guys didn’t talk talk?
RORI: Nope. Neither of us brought it up.
MAGGIE: It does look like Trinity’s moved the focus along to her gender reveal event. Nobody’s talking about Landon anymore.
RORI: I know.
RORI: Even so, I’m feeling really uneasy about putting myself in the middle of a publicity storm. Trinity or no Trinity.
RORI: I just want to focus on the Open.
MAGGIE: So why didn’t you tell him that?
RORI: Because I chickened out. UGH. He wants me to go to this gala thing with him the week before.
MAGGIE: GIRL.
RORI: Yeah. Maybe I’ll try to talk to him about it sometime this week.
MAGGIE: What about your dad? You talk to him more about the house?
RORI: Not really, but what can I do? The house is sold.
RORI: At least when we spoke last week, I told him how I felt, and he apologized. With Landon, I can’t seem to get my big girl panties on.
MAGGIE: Time to pull em up.
