Chapter Nine

>>Mallory: Hey, what are you up to today?
Though I had a ton on my mind and even more work to do making sense of all the info I’d gathered, I didn’t know where to go with any of it. Mallory could be a good person to bounce my ideas off in the meantime.
>>Me: Not much, trying to make sense of everything I’ve learned in the last couple days. What about you? Anything new on the picture I sent you?
>> Mallory: Actually, that’s why I’m writing. Can I come over?
>>Me: Yeah, sure. I’m just sitting around pretending like I’m working anyway.
>>Mallory: Okay
