Wordle #1007 - DECAY
“Well, yeah, you were being weirdly aggro…” Bree trails off, maybe a little surprised that I’d put it so bluntly. “But I forgive you.”
Wow, how very big of her.
“How are you feeling today? Do you want to talk about… it?”
Bree sighs heavily on the other end of the phone, and I can picture the way she pouts when she’s looking for sympathy.
“Today has been… not great. You’ve already done so much for me, Cece, but I could really use a friend right now. Would you mind terribly coming up to see me?” She asks so sweetly it gives me tooth decay.
“Actually, I’m already in the City.”
The guy eavesdropping on me finally loses interest and turns back to his laptop with a disappointed shrug.
“Oh, really? That’s perfect!” Bree says cheerily. “Where are you at?”
“Near the Mission,” I answer before I can think better of it.
Oh, good one, Cecilia—placing yourself in the vicinity of Early Morning Yoga. Perhaps you’d like to admit to poking around Cover to Cover next?
But Bree doesn’t bat an eye.
“How about I come to you? We could meet at Dolores Park? I need to get out of this house, so does Lola.”
