One of the positives of my new normal was my contact with Michelle I’d re when I woke up and ask how her and the kids were and if she needed anything Every day she responded the saood :)
She didn’t needas she kneas there, just in case, I could sleep at night I’d visited Gam not once but twice, and I hadn’tin extra tireat week, but I still had the weekend to go before I could strut into Dr Roberts’s office Tuesday afternoon and prove to her that I could go a ithout sex, standing on my head And… one of Dr Roberts’s stipulations was that I had to leave the house and go out once, but she hadn’t said anything in the rules about not bringing backup, so I called Brody and Kacie to have therabbed our usual table in the corner The saloon doors opened and Portland ca smile on her face
“Hey, you!” She beamed
“Hey”

“I don’t know, you just see week”
“Okay” She sht I’ll be right back”
She turned around and had just disappeared into the kitchen when suddenly, two little hands covered my eyes
“Guess who?” a feuise her voice
“Uh…” I was stuirls at this bar it literally could have been anyone “Is it…”
“Your worst nighthed I knew that voice for certain I pulled the hands down and Brody was already sitting across the table fro her hands, I looked toher arhed “You totally did I had no idea who the fuck it was”
As Kacie came around to sit at the table, I noticed she wasn’t alone Michelle followed behind her
“Hey!” I was excited to see her
“Hey yourself, stranger” Shetiht hours?”
“You guys talked today?” Kacie stared back and forth between the two of us “When?”
Michelle gaveover at Kacie “Viper has been really sweet He’s been textingto see if the kids and I are okay or if we need anything”
