The next day.
Before ten in the morning, Carson Foster was already lighting up the group chat, announcing a bachelor and bachelorette party for Jonathan and Estelle that night at 9th Mansion.
Charlie James: [Are you sure you can call it a bachelor party? Ask Jonathan if he has the nerve to call himself a bachelor.]
Jonathan: [Someone with a kid still claims to be single. Why should I be embarrassed?]
Charlie: [When did I ever say that? Stop slandering me and retract that statement immediately!]
Emily came online: [Jonah, can I call you in a bit?]
Jonathan: [Of course. Ella is right here with me. I promise to be completely honest with her listening in.]
Charlie sent an angry emoji: [Jonathan, I’m your best man. Are you sure you want to screw me over right now? Think carefully!]
Jonathan: [What are you so nervous about?]
Charlie went silent, probably off calling Emily to explain himself.
Magdalen and the others chimed in: [Mr. Foster, are the parties separate? You guys throw one for Mr. Lamont, and I’ll throw one for my Ella!]
Carson: [They can be separate, but I bet a lot of people will be requesting a plus-one.]
Charlie returned after his call: [Ms. Sampson, my Emily requests a plus-one!]
Morrison Langston: [The host, Ms. Sampson, requests a plus-one.]
Jonathan: [Same request!]
Josiah James: [My goddess Amiee also requests a plus-one!]
Carson tagged Marina Evert repeatedly: [@Marina Evert, your turn!]
Marina: [All the men are making the requests. Why do I have to do it myself?]
She nodded. “I will.”
“How much?”
“Whenever you’re thinking of me, I’ll definitely be thinking of you too,” she said.
Satisfied with her answer, Jonathan leaned in for another kiss.
Estelle turned her head. “Mr. Lamont, could you please go to work? If you don’t, I’m going home.”
He kissed her cheek, then held her for another moment before finally letting go. “Alright, I’ll get to work. You can play here. If you miss me, come find me. I’ve cleared my schedule for the whole day.”
“Okay,” she nodded.
He kissed her behind the ear one more time before heading to his desk.
