The following day, when it's time for me to leave, I'm surprised to see Maddox's car in the driveway. I'm all dressed in my work uniform and ready for the day to be over. The other girls sit in the living room with Isaac, who had awkwardly walked in and sat down beside Winona. I stand at the door and wave at everyone before ducking out of the house. "Did you block my number?" I asks Maddox once I get into the car. The grin on my face is infectious because the corners of his mouth perk up just enough to be noticeable. "Not yet," he responds as he starts in the direction of my job. "So, uh, what'd you guys do?" "We talked," I summarize. "About?" he presses. "Gossip, guys, stuff," I list. "Guys?" Maddox wonders and I chuckle. "Yes, Maddox, we talked about guys," I confirm his curiosity
