Chapters
Hey, girl, Rise and shine.
Hey, girl. Looks like you're having a great start to your day. Who are you texting?
No one.
Is that Mariah? I didn't even know you had her number.
I don't. I'm not texting her. And make some coffee.
What's going on?
What do you mean?
I don't know. What do I mean? Maybe the fact that you've just been on your phone all the time and I didn't realize you were this close with Mariah.
You're being paranoid. Babe, nothing is going on. Oh, hey, I gotta take this. Hey, Suspicious. I'm not sure how much longer we can hide this. I think I'm just gonna tell her. All right, all right, fine. I'll wait. Okay. All right. By.
Did you just hang up the FaceTime call?
Yeah, I'm in the middle of a work thing right now. I can't FaceTime. This is urgent.
No, I was just wondering when you were going to be home, Katie.
Is that it?
Soon.
Okay, but I got to go. All right, bye.
Oh, my gosh. Okay, you will not believe what Jake just did to me.
What'd he do?
He literally hung up on me. I was trying to FaceTime him, and he hung up and talked to me on the phone, but he wouldn't FaceTime me.
That sounds like an all too familiar story. Yeah.
Yes.
I think you should just have a straight talk with him, you know?
I mean, supposedly he's busy at work, but I know work isn't busy right now. I mean, you're right. I probably should have just talked to him, but it's just really weird.
Sounds like something's up.
I think I hear him coming. I'm gonna let you go. I'll talk to you later.
Okay, let me know.
Bye.
Yeah, no, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm gonna tell her today. All right. Oh, yo, I hear her coming.
Who are you talking to?
No one.
Don't lie to me, Jake. I know you've been talking to Mariah. So not crazy. I'm not stupid, so don't treat me like I am. Just. Just tell me what's going on, please.
Hold on.
Jake, seriously.
Hey, girl. Happy birthday, girl. We love you, we miss you, and we wish we were there.
Y' all were planning a birthday party for me.
Surprise. Yeah, look, Mariah and I were planning a surprise party for you. For months, actually. But with all of this happening, we had to come up with a new plan, so Sammy was actually in on it, too. You suck at this stuff.
So, Seriously, Sammy.
Well, I couldn't spoil the surprise.
I'll hit you back. Guys.
Honestly thought you might have been cheating on me with her baby.
You know I would never do that. Look, I mean, I'm sorry about lying to you about texting her, but I wanted this to be a surprise.
I'm so embarrassed now. I'm sorry.
You're right.
I should have just talked to you.
The foundation for every single relationship is trust. I love you. I just need to know you trust me.
I do. I do trust you, Jake.
I just.
I shouldn't have jumped to conclusions or accused you of something so serious without actually knowing. That wasn't fair to you. I'm sorry. It's really cute. I like it.
Yeah, well, you know. Come here.
Love you.
