I shake my head and drop it back to the sofa.
Nina
I find that bizarre. I could happily murder Mase when I’m ovulating.
I leave the chat, wondering why I ever thought that would be a good idea.
My phone pings a moment later with three messages in a new group chat.
Nina
Lucy
Megan
I rub at my face, knowing if there’s anyone who can give me sound advice, it’s them.
I didn’t tell Lissie about our night together at the club, and she found out. She’s upset and doesn’t want to speak to me. What do I do?
Nina
Have you spoken to her at all yet?
Yes. She told me she knew, and we had a bit of a thing in my office. She tried to quit and then left.
Lucy
And you haven’t heard from her since?
Megan
When was this? When did she find out?
She confronted me on Friday and then showed up for work this morning. She’s at mine now.
Nina
WHAT?
Lucy
I actually just laughed out loud. Charles what has happened to you?
What?
Megan
It’s still really fresh, no wonder she’s not talking to you. You’ve had weeks to process seeing her again after that night and the feelings that came with that. She’s likely feeling betrayed on top of all those other things, and you can’t put a time on when she won’t feel that way anymore.
Why is she at your house now?
Luna cut her paw in the office, so she took her to the vet. I asked her to wait here with her whilst I went and got Daisy from Edna. I thought it would be a good time to talk, but I don’t know how to make it right.
She must have fallen asleep waiting for me to get back, and I don’t want to go up and wake her.
Nina
GO UP?! What does this mean??
