Foggy continued his story to the two secretaries, "And Matt bangs his cane around and says-"

"Am I in the right room?" Zoe finished for Foggy. Which left the two college friends in a fit of laughter together.

Benicia snorted while Karen openly laughed, "Where did you three put his furniture?"

Foggy immediately answered with a grin while Zoe high fived him, "Dorm room across the hall."

Zoe nodded her head, "It was Rhea's idea, but it was so funny."

"Oh, God!" Karen fell back in her chair, "Oh, I really wish I knew you guys back then."

"Much better off knowing us now." Foggy admitted to her when he noticed Benicia get up and walk off, "We have our own practice. I'm a hell of a lot more dashing than I was in my awkward college days."

"Oh, yeah?" Karen tilted her head to the side, she wondered for a moment how Benicia was but didn't get up since she knew that her friend probably wouldn't like all of them checking on her, "Well, I'm going to need photographic proof of that, counselor."

"I have dug myself another hole, haven't I?"

"I've got photos on my phone-" Zoe took her phone out and leaned closer to Karen as she found a photo of all of them together, "This is me, Rhea, Matt, and Foggy."

"Oh, my God. Your blonde hair." Karen gushed at the sight of the photo, "Rhea wore glasses?"

"She got eye surgery. We both did, actually." Zoe answered as she scrolled through a few more photos. One of which was Matt carrying Zoe on his back while Rhea was carrying Foggy. There was another photo with Foggy, Rhea, and Zoe holding Matt up as well. And then a photo of Rhea wearing Matt's clothes and using his white cane to mimic him. "Our college years were a mess and honestly, you dodged a bullet not knowing us then."

"I don't know." Karen took Zoe's phone and zoomed in specifically on Zoe's smiling face. It was all scrunched up, with her cheeks pressing her eyes into slits. "I think I might have really liked to have this in my college life."

"I'm going to go check on, Benny." Foggy tapped the table and nodded his head to them.

"Hold on-" Zoe was going to suggest she go instead of Foggy, but Karen stopped her before she could go.

Karen scrolled to the next image, which was Rhea and Zoe at Zoe's graduation, "Why didn't you keep the blonde?"

"I wanted to get rid of the dead hair so I grew it out and cut it off." Zoe pulled at her brown hair a little bit, "I had pink in it at some point but it faded really fast."

"Pink?" Karen mused while setting her phone down before tucking some of Zoe's hair behind her ear, "I think I would have liked seeing you defend a client with bright pink hair in a courtroom."

Zoe felt a shiver run down her back and she knew she was going red again, "I-uh-I don't think they'd allow it."

"It would be badass though, hm?" Karen pulled her hand back and glanced down at the phone again, "Is there any evidence of this pink hair?"
