Chapter 22 Brandon “Hey, man,” Travis says when I answer my phone. It’s been another long day, and I just want to get home. To Mary. Where I can s***k her tight little a*s for playing this stupid game. She purposely ignores me to get a rise out of me. Thinks she’s funny. In a way, I guess it is. “Hey. What’s up?” “Nothing. Just got off the phone with Char. She said Mary was there and is worried about you guys.” I chuckle into the receiver and accelerate as the traffic light turns green. “We’re fine. Why’d she say that?” “Hell, I don’t know. You know how women are. She said Mary made a comment about how it’s not gonna work between you two.” I shake my head then realize he can’t see me. “Nah. Everything’s great, actually. She probably knew Char would tell you and it’d get back to me.
