TABITHA
My phone buzzes in my pocket and I carefully pull it out. Once I
manage to free the dang device, I hold it below the edge of my desk and
glance around to make sure Mr. Winston is none the wiser. I’ve perfected this
trick. I hold the phone close to my side and read the message while
pretending to peruse the data on my computer screen.
I’m not surprised to see the group message pop up from my book club
friends. Even though we’re scattered throughout the country, we chat often
and meet up whenever we can.

GEM
Valentine’s Day sucks.
CORDY
Nope. No way! We are not moping on Valentine’s Day this year!
We always mope on Valentine’s Day.
manage to type my response while my nosy boss answers a telephone call.
Once I finish my message, I notice Mr. Winston’s beady eyes following my
every movement and decide not to push my luck. I slip my phone back into
my pocket and return to my computer screen.
For the next several minutes, I feel my phone doing a dance in my pocket,
and although I’m dying to know what my friends are discussing, I don’t want
to risk getting caught goofing off, as my old-fashioned, stuffy boss calls it.
When Mr. Winston finally leaves for lunch, I pull out my phone and
quickly scan the chat, knowing my friends weren’t surprised that I suddenly
went quiet. I tend to do it a whole lot.
CLEARY
It’s our thing.
DEVYN
It’s why we have wine.
GEM
You have wine. I’ll stick to my chocolate liqueurs. Booze and
chocolate without the hangover.
MANDY
And cake! Cake is a must!
PEYTON
Don’t forget book boyfriends. They help ease the ache, lol.
CLEARY
Especially when paired with “the rose”
CORDY
I have an idea.
PEYTON
Wait up. I just need to grab a flak jacket.
GEM
Oh, lord! Last time you had an idea, we almost got arrested.
And I never did find my inflatable dolphin.
DEVYN
That was the night I came home with one shoe. Your dolphin’s
probably with my lost sparkly stiletto.
MANDY
Rum and I broke up after the last time we all got together. I
can’t see a bottle without feeling a little nauseous.
PEYTON
See? That’s why I keep my nose buried in a book. You girls are
dangerous.
CORDY
I’m not that bad.
CLEARY
YES, YOU ARE!
PEYTON
Cordy, I love you, but you are on a whole other level.
CLEARY
Peyton’s not wrong, sweets. You should come with a special
kind of warning label.
CORDY
ANYWAY. I think we should make a pact.
MANDY
What kind of pact?
GEM
This better not require a blood sacrifice.
