The Liar in Room 5 (Halo House #2)

Chapter 4

Henry

Hey, you, I got your number from Phoenix. I hope that’s okay. It’s Henry.

Hey. Hi. It’s fine.

How’s the existential crisis these days?

You were right, tacos cure all.

Their healing properties are good, but I’m not sure they’re that great.

It’s what I choose to believe.

Who am I to argue?

You mentioned when we met that you like pickleball, and I ended up with tickets to a tournament on Saturday. Would you like to go with me?

…

No pressure, but I’d like to see you again.

…

Sounds good. Where should I meet you?

I’ll pick you up at 11. FYI, it’s casual.

See you soon.

…

…

Looking forward to it.
