“How early did you get up to leave the toilet flapper on my door the other night?” Sofia asked as she added guacamole to her grilled chicken soft taco.
We bonded over our love of tacos, and whenever we went out to eat, we seemed to end up at Just Tacos. The food was delicious, and no one ever gave me a side-eye.
“What do you mean?” I asked.
“I stayed up late hoping to catch you. I felt bad for sending you on an errand, especially when you weren’t back by the time I was done with Mrs. Watson’s dishwasher. I crashed on the couch watching a movie, but the part still wasn’t on my door. I planned to run to Al’s Hardware early the next morning, but when I walked out my door, the bag was there.”
“Oh, um, I, uh…” Crap. I never thought she’d notice, so I never came up with an excuse.
