Baller had sent HEY HAPPY NEW YEAR. We should get sushi sometime, you in???? That, at least, Grady could seize on as a distraction. Aren’t we supposed to be rivals now? He expected it to be a while before Baller texted back—it was pretty early—but maybe he had practice or maybe you didn’t get to sleep in very much when you had a kid, because he got a reply almost right away. Bro we could go on a date to Disneyland and no one would even notice. Ask me how I know. Then, a moment later, Ok my husband would notice but you get the point.
