CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE

FORD: Did you watch the game?

JULIET: No, I’m at the restaurant filling out paperwork with Sophia.

FORD: No more topless cleaning?

JULIET: No dad, I won’t be showing my tits to anyone anymore.

FORD: Did you just use the word tits? I feel like I need to screenshot this and put it on the fridge to prove you do indeed have a filthy mouth.

JULIET: You know damn well I said fuck last night.

FORD: Does you bringing it up mean we can talk about it?

JULIET: Nope.

FORD: Okay I’ll just keep replaying it in my head instead.

JULIET: Did you guys win?

FORD: In an epic fashion.

JULIET: Congrats.

FORD: I have a theory as to why, but I think I’ll have to wait to prove it.

JULIET: Do I even want to know?

FORD: You will.

JULIET: What’s that supposed to mean?

FORD: It means make sure you’re free Saturday afternoon for date number two.

JULIET: When will you be home?

FORD: Later. A few of the guys want to go out and celebrate, so I’m going to join them.

JULIET: I’ll see you later then.

FORD: Count on it.
