“Thanks. And while I have you, can you talk shop for a sec about the Fall Festivities?”

Charlee and I chatted for a few minutes until she had to run. We agreed to meet up for Trivia Night at KC’s just as my phone lit up.
Nate.
Sup, Zoe girl?
There you are! How did it go?
About that. . .
???
I didn’t go.
What the heck?
What do you mean?
The more I think about it, I’m just not sure the restaurant biz is for me.
So you didn’t go?
Nope
Then why not text me earlier? But I didn’t say that.
I see.
Sorry I didn’t text sooner. Wasn’t sure what to say.
‘I didn’t go’ seems appropriate.
Pause. There was more. I could tell.
What is it?
I might stay here a few days, visit with the family. Try to figure things out.
So, that’s why he hadn’t contacted me earlier.
Okay. . .
You’re not upset?
I was, but I didn’t see any point in telling him that.
Life is too short not to tell people you love that you love them.
Now wasn’t the time. I didn’t want to do it over text anyway.
I’ll miss you, obviously. And hope you come back soon.
I just have to figure out what I’m coming back to.
That was easy.
