I’ll cross my fingers for you.

Sunday

Zeke

Give Pierce shit if you go in tomorrow. Spit in his coffee or something.

Savannah

I take it he isn’t letting you come home yet?

Zeke

No. I’m starting to think he and Vincent are actually competing to see which one of them can be more of a pain in my ass.

I had to sit in the freezing cold for twelve hours last night because Vincent decided to camp out between two bushes to stalk some woman who hacked into his system.

Savannah

That doesn’t sound like much fun. For anyone.

Zeke

You might be surprised. I’m pretty sure Vincent enjoyed himself thoroughly.

Monday

Savannah

I noticed your office was a little drab. I also noticed I accidentally bought too many candles, so things worked themselves out and I put a few on your desk. I hope that’s okay.

Zeke

That depends. What scent are they?

Savannah

Mahogany Teakwood

Zeke

As long as it doesn’t smell like my grandma, it’s fine.

Savannah

I’ve never smelled your grandma, but I can say with relative certainty she doesn’t smell like this.

Zeke

It’s been a while since I smelled my grandma, but if I remember correctly, her perfume was Camel Reds and cheap vodka.

Savannah

…

…

That’s unfortunate. Cheap vodka is terrible.
