"ouch. people did that with some of my exes. i know it hurts."

"she goes like 'tell your future wife, and tyler's that i said congratulations,' she says that to joshua."

"oh... that sounds a little..."

"i don't know what about it either. it's just... ugh. and she was so nice."

"nice doesn't always equal accepting."

"i know."

she nods, and holds my shoulder.

"anyways, enough about us, how are you, alev, and ender."

"wonderful, actually! ender drew littles scribbles on a page and me and alev put it on the fridge! it was so fucking adorable, tyler."

"you'll have to show me my godson's picture next time i come over."

"i will."

i stare at them.

"what?"

"i remember when you were crying on my lap trying so hard to become a mother."

"oh.. god i remember one night when i ate three whole cartons of vanilla ice cream with the little strawberries in them."

"and then all while you were pregnant with ender that's all you wanted."

"i... i didn't even notice that, tyler."

"i think your angel babies were saying hello."

"god, don't say that. i'm gonna start crying."

"i don't want you to cry."

"i love you, tyler. you just... made my day."

"what, were you thinking of calling in sick?"

"hell yes."
