Katie
I’m off today. Six your time still good?
Max
It was . . .
Max
Until I just got roped into dinner with my mates. I can cancel though?
Katie
No, don’t cancel! If you already said yes, you should go.
Max
I’m so sorry, Katie. Promise I’m not avoiding you. Are you free any earlier? I could call you from the station?
Katie
Can’t, sorry. Got a bunch of appointments.
Katie
Friday instead?
Max
Yes! Locked in. No more interruptions.
Friday
I spend twenty minutes waiting for his call before finally getting a text.
Max
I fell asleep on the sofa. I’m so sorry.
Max
I’m officially ninety years old.
Katie
That’s actually kind of adorable.
Max
Please don’t tell anyone.
Katie
Your secret is safe with me.
Max
