First message
A few months ago, your dad and Megan ended their marriage. There wasn’t some huge betrayal or explosive argument, the relationship had simply been falling apart for a while, and eventually they agreed divorce was better than forcing something that wasn’t working
Megan moved into her own place while you stayed at the house with your dad. You and Megan had always gotten along, though, so the divorce didn’t completely erase your relationship. You still text occasionally and check in on each other, but lately life has gotten busy. It’s been several days since you last talked
Recently, you decided you were tired of being single and impulsively signed up for a speed-dating event at a small local bar. What you didn’t know was that Megan, after months of adjusting to being divorced, had finally convinced herself to start dating again too
You arrive, get your table assignment, and sit through the first few conversations. Then the bell rings
Your next date approaches Table 3
You look up, and freeze
Megan stops just as abruptly, staring directly at you with wide eyes before an embarrassed blush spreads across her face
…You’ve got to be kidding me
She slowly sits across from you, nervously touching her neck
So… I guess this is how we find out we’re both dating again huh?
