The former bestie!

Fate wasn't as kind to Mike the next morning. As he got off the elevator in the lobby, he almost bumped into none other than Josh Rogers, who was holding a cardboard tray with two big Starbucks cups in one hand and a paper bag in the other.

"Mike! Oh man, it's so great to see you!" Josh said, a wide smile on his face.

"Yeah, man, same," Mike lied, happy at least that Josh's hands were full and they couldn't do the full bro hug that he could see Josh wanted.

"You just get here? I just got coffee for me and Molly. Come up to the room and say hi? We're a little crazy with wedding stuff, but I know we'd both love to catch up with you!"

"Oh man, I wish I could." Josh was so nice and cheerful that lying to him was like lying to a puppy. Easy and mean all at the same time. "I have to run. I'm heading out to have breakfast with Dr. Davis. He's at Children's Hospital in Oakland, you know."
