???: That dinner is still owed?

Hope: More of a bruins fan tbh
Reed: Unfortunately growing up in Oregon we didn't have our own team
Hope: Poor little Reese, how's Saturday?
Reed: 8 o'clock work?
Hope: see you then, Happy Thanksgiving

The pit in my stomach increased, I never lied to my best friend. Not about anything, but right now I was. Even when I found out about Joely, I was so scared. I didn't quite know what to do about Law School. But she didn't care, she was more excited if anything
Hope: We'll be at your apartment by 6
Arabella: 😏 my suspicions were right, you are avoiding me!
Hope: False, I'm avoiding Grayson's Bill Belichick impression after he's downed 4 glasses of wine!
Arabella: Enjoy Charlie and the parade... and your cinnamon buns
