“Thank you, Blake. I’m so sorry I’m running a little late, though. I had brunch with my friends, and then we hung out at Cal’s place. We had planned to watch only one horror movie, but that soon turned into two, and before I knew it, it was already half past five. I had to rush back home to shower and get ready for our date.”
Blake shook his head. “It’s fine. Take your time.”
“Thank you. Why don’t you have a seat on the couch? I just need another five minutes.”
“Okay.”
