Rosemary shot back with a grin, [Maybe I should give you the runaround as well, eh?]
[Oh no, no, no. You know how patient I am, kiddo. Even for my own birthday bash, I take things slow and steady.]
Rosemary chuckled, [Haven't left the house yet?]
[Any minute now.]
[Drive safe.]
Those words from Rosemary made Charles' day. He couldn't help but snap a screenshot and share it with his buddies in their group chat.
[Just look at the angel, so thoughtful. She's all grown up now, and cares for me!]
He added a smug emoji for good measure.
Grandpa Eugene, [I texted her and didn't even get a single exclamation mark in reply! Is that screenshot from ages ago, or what?]
Beck chimed in, [Must be my lousy internet here. Still waiting on that sweet message from her.]
Nelson quipped, [Just drove through a tunnel, bad reception, you know?]
Jarvis, [You two are fooling yourselves. Messages going out but none coming in? Who you trying to kid? Wake up, the girl didn't text you.]
