Chapter Nineteen

Di

After a long week, I settle in to grade a quiz. It’s been difficult trying to keep myself from kissing Garrett the last few times I’ve seen him.

We’ve sorted out everything for the race. We have a permit from the city. We have vendors. We have parent volunteers. We even have a company donating ribbons and the local farm that’s donating little pumpkins for the kids. The farm was excited to be able to get rid of their extra pumpkins after Halloween.

The race invite went out to the schools, including the middle and high schools. And now, we are getting people signed up and ready to race.

I have a feeling this will suck up all my time which is a good thing because it means less thinking about Garrett.

My phone buzzes, and I glance at it.

Bailey: Remember you said you wanted to take a cooking class?

Me: Uh, yeah?

Bailey: Well…I signed us up for one. The chef at the little inn past the apple orchard is teaching one on Thursday nights. It’s a four-week class. Want to do it?

Me: YES! Also, I may be stress eating during the first two sessions. This race stuff is consuming my life.

Bailey: And done. It starts this coming week. And you’ll be fine. You’re a master multitasker.

Me: Cool beans. And I’m not sure my skills are at a master level.

I put my phone down and smile. Maybe cooking will be my thing. I already know that I like it. It might be a nice break from all my stress. My phone pings again and I don’t bother looking, assuming it’s Bailey with details for our class. I decide to bake cookies to take to my parents’ house since it’s Clark’s birthday party tonight and he loves chocolate chip cookies.

I decide to shower and change while the cookies cool. Getting out of the shower, I glance down at my phone and freeze.

There are missed text messages and calls from Garrett. I press my text app.

Garrett: Uh, Kylie invited me to Clark’s birthday party tonight. I wanted to make sure it’s OK with you before I say yes.

Garrett: Earth to Di? Kylie is blowing up my phone.

Garrett: Di? Are you OK?

Garrett: I’m coming over there.

As if on cue, there’s a knock at my door. Shit.

I open it to find Garrett standing there, looking at me like I’m resurrected from the dead.

“Thank God!” he exclaims.

“Hello to you too.”

“Why didn’t you answer? I was worried.”

I sigh. “Well, I baked Clark cookies and then took a shower. I know it’s crazy, but sometimes I go an entire hour without looking at my phone,” I say, my voice laced with sarcasm.

He smirks. “An entire hour? Impressive.”

I roll my eyes and stand to the side, so he can come in.

“So, are you coming to dinner?” I ask as I start packing up cookies.

“Kylie said she’d kick my ass if I didn’t.”

“Well, then you best show your face. Kylie doesn’t like it when people don’t do what she wants them to do.”

“You have a complicated family, Di.
