Chapter 145

Monday

Angie: Thank you for the Star Wars bouquet. It’s freaking adorable.

Max: I’m glad you liked it.

Angie: That being said, if you send me confetti again, I will find a way to get you back.

Max: I like the sound of that. What would you do?

Angie: squinty eyes I’d start by paying off the refs in your game tonight.

Max: How would you do that?

Angie: I know people.

Max: Hopefully not important people because I may or may not have sent you a confetti super pack.

Angie: That better not actually be a thing.

Max: Oh, it’s a thing.

Angie: I hope you’ll enjoy spending the night in the penalty box.

Tuesday morning

Max: How much did you give them?

Angie: Give who what?

Max: The refs. Three penalties last night. WTF.

Angie: Don’t doubt my superpowers.

Max: I’ve canceled the confetti.

Angie: Good.

Max: Brayden has a school event tonight, but can I call you tomorrow?

Angie: I’ll think about it.

Max: Do I have to break out my Wookie again?

Angie: God, no. I have a late meeting, but I’ll be home by seven.

Max: Brayden’s usually in bed by eight-thirty, okay if I call you then?

Angie: No more confetti EVER.

Max: Deal.

Angie: Then eight thirty works for me.

Max: Talk to you then.
