Chapter 1.24: November 26, 2015
"We'll have to cancel visiting Florence because the convention fell through."
"Tragic, really. What'll we do, then?"
"You'll get a little bit of downtime in Rome before leaving for Madrid on the nineteenth."
"Well, that ought to be nice. Are you going to visit us on the tour, Leo?"
"I'm afraid not in Europe. I may be able to visit while you're in New York because I'll be at a business conference there at the same time."
"It's a date, then."
"There's no guarantee I'll make it. Besides, I don't swing that way. Sorry."
"Never said you did, and neither do I. I'm putting it on my mental calendar, anyway. You should visit us while we're in San Francisco, though. Eru will be there."
"That sounds intriguing. I must meet this world-renowned Erunai."
"Then it's a date, then, too. Bye, Leo. Happy Thanksgiving."
"Goodbye, Ken. Happy Thanksgiving."
Click.
Riiiiii—
"Ken on the line."
"Kenny, you dork, did you forget to call me?"
"I do apologize, my princess."
"You had better, my dork. Happy Thanksgiving."
"Happy Thanksgiving. What are your plans?"
"Beth and I are visiting her family for dinner."
"Sounds fun. I've heard her mother makes the best mashed potatoes."
"She does. What about you?"
"I don't think I'm doing anything special. Today is practically booked, so I'll be too exhausted to celebrate."
"That's sad."
"Yeah, it is."
"Ken, are you ready yet? We're leaving in five minutes!"
"I'm so sorry, but I have to go. I don't know what I'm supposed to be doing right now, but it sounds important."
"All right. Love you, Kenny."
"I love you, Eru."
