“And you know”—Daisy leans in close to her new bestie, my mother, and yells over the noise—“I’m definitely satisfied” Like my mom, she’s a hand-talker and accidentally whacks Robbie in the junk

Whatever he says does the trick Daisy abandons the conversation withhim on the cheek, she leaves behind pastel pink lipDaisy invites her and Sidney to co early toshow Alex’s parents’ house would become if such an event transpired

The VIP section is packed, but Sunny and Buck are nowhere to be found Buck better not be using this as a way to get back at Alex, otherwise a WWE match is likely to occur
