บท 12: Chapter 12: Comparing Notes

Maggie wasn’t sure why she hadn’t mentioned to Michael that she was meeting the other new hires for drinks at Doc Watson’s.  She supposed she didn’t want him to wonder if she was talking about him.  Nate had texted her shortly after five to say that he and the others were heading out.  She’d replied that she planned to keep working until she was finished and to let her know if they left the bar.  She’d also texted Ben to see if he’d meet her there.  His new office was only a few blocks away.

As she reached the black awning in front of the pub, she heard someone calling her name.  “Hey Flynn, wait up!”  Ben grinned as he strode up to her and gave her a peck on the cheek.  “So how’s tricks?” he asked her.

“Not too shabby, how about you?” she asked as they made their way inside.

He grimaced, running a hand through his thick brown waves.  “Well, I made it through the first day without any major fuck-ups.  I hope I’m not bored to tears by real estate law.”
