“Yeah Thanks”

“Saturday After work” She pushes the door open, slides out, sets her bag on her shoulder “I’ll see you tomorrow, Ryan”

I need to deal with that

Whatever it takes

Chapter 21

Ryan’s hair falls in front of his eyes as he shakes his head

“Really?” I wave the menswear back and forth “This is fatal?”
