Do you need money for groceries?

I find I’m oddly impatient as I wait for her answer. It doesn’t arrive until 10:30.

Nope. Martin gave me cash for this week and is arranging a credit card for me for expenses.

I don’t think of the woman again until I break for lunch at 12:45 and find a Panini in my warming drawer. There’s bacon, cheese, and some kind of creamed spinach concoction on sourdough bread. It’s maybe the best thing I’ve ever eaten.

I hate dealing with other peoples’ stupid mistakes.

The only thing I hate more than that is dealing with the consequences of my own stupid mistakes.

And when it comes to this personal chef, I was wrong, and Martin was clearly right. The asshole.

Texts between Ian and Savannah

first week

I haven’t heard from you in a couple of days. How has the food been?

Fine

Any special requests in the coming week? I’m going to the store this afternoon.

No

You’ve had smoothies for breakfast every day so far. Would you like to try something different?

No

What about flavor profiles? Any of the smoothies strike your fancy?

They are all fine.

Ian has silenced notifications.

Great. ?? I’ll assume everything I’m making is perfect. ????????

I’ll just keep pulling recipes out of thin air.

Dinner will be at 7 PM as per usual.

second week

Since I’ve had no complaints, I’m going to assume that the meals have been fine.

Please let me know otherwise.

If you have any preferences, any meals that you have particularly liked, I would love to hear them.

It would help me meal-plan for the week.

Everything is fine.
