Do I want to? How do I feel about that?

Pushing it away for now, I go back to find out more about her before I commit to a movie night. Even though that sounds like the best introduction if I decide to do this.

Gracie:Does she like school?

Marc:She does, but she has to if she wants to become a doctor when she grows up.

Gracie:A doctor. Wow, that’s cool.

Marc:Yeah, she’s pretty smart. That I know is from me.

Gracie:Tickets on yourself.

Marc:For intelligence, 100 percent.

Gracie:So what did you eat for dinner?

Marc:Eggs, toast, and turkey bacon.

Gracie:At least your appetite returned.

Marc:It did when you texted me.

Gracie:You made that while talking to me.

Marc:Yeah, and ate it too. I’m a master at multitasking.

I chuckle to myself before typing the final text.

Gracie:I better go and get ready for work tomorrow. Thanks for the chat.

Marc:Same. Goodnight,Bellax

That last word makes me smile. He’s back.

I wonder what she is doing. I haven’t heard from her in a couple of days and this week’s meeting was moved by the client, so I won’t see her for another couple of days.

Bored and lonely, I pick up my phone to text her.

Marc:What are you doing?

Gracie:WatchingReal Housewiveson TV, why?

Marc:No particular reason. I’m just bored and thinking of you.

Gracie:You bored? Don’t you have a business to run?

Marc:It’s out of hours now.

Gracie:Still, I thought you never took time off.

Marc:I do at night. And when Aria comes.
