“Hey, bestie!”Kitty whispered into the phone. I was calling her during a brain break before I started my evening work on our data set. “I’m on set but I want to talk to you anyway.”
“Oh, well, don’t let me ruin a scene,” I said. Kitty was a writer and actor in Hollywood, and for now, things were working with her husband, Guy, playing for the LA Princes. We weren’t allowed to say the “T” word (trade) lest we jinx their arrangement.
“I’m sneaking away, hang on.” A few seconds passed. “Alright, I’m good now. They don’t need me again for a while. How’s it going?”
My stomach fluttered. “Um, good, I think. I mean, work has been hell, but hopefully it’s leading to a good result. But, um, I saw Colton a few days ago.”
“Oh?” she asked. “And how is Colton Jones? Annoying as ever?”
I chuckled. Kitty was around for my first time dating Colton and was one of many people who pretended to buy my lie that he “got annoying.”
“He’s not. I may have been wrong about the annoying part,” I said. “Shoot. I guess I have a lot to tell you. Maybe you should call me when you get off work.”
