“Hey, sweetie, you called? Everything okay?” My lip almost quivers at the concern in her voice. I sit on the bed and get comfortable. You’ll-never-believe-what-has-happened kind of comfortable. Reed will just have to wait. “Did Galen tell you we were fighting?” “Galen? What do you mean? Galen is with you. Right?” “He left, actually.” I don’t skip a beat. This isn’t the hard part of the conversation. Not yet. “A few days ago. He said he was going back to talk to Grom.” Okay, so maybe it is a little hard. “Wait, you haven’t seen him?” So he hasn’t made it to Grom yet? Why is he taking his time? Hope cartwheels through me. Maybe he’s coming back. He has to be. He got all my messages, and we’re going to work things out. I don’t know why I feel so relieved, but I do. Maybe he’ll even make it back in time to go to the Huddle. I’ll have to get Sylvia to give him directions. I take out the hotel stationery and start scrawling my request for her. Suddenly, I regret calling Mom, getting her involved in my relationship issues.
