“I woke up with tears in my eyes.
There’s a single text message from Jude’s new phone number that I see on my way to the spaghetti squash dinner that Aunt Tessa made.
ill find u I scowl at the text and then see the original message that Carl had sent.
“Carl!” I yell, feeling the blush in my cheeks. “Carl, goddammit!”
His head pops in the doorway of the kitchen area with a big, mischievous grin. He cackles. “You’re never going to ask me to send a text for you again, now are you?”
“Carl…”
“Hey, be thankful. I could have said what you really wanted to say.”
I glare at him and decide not to send an apology message back, because it would be overcomplicating it. I still didn’t know what to make of Jude. Mike was easy to understand, simple, safe. Jude was…something else entirely, something my emotions didn’t know how to process.
