Holy shit, Troy. It’s me… Eden? I can’t believe this. I swore it was you so I had to come over obviously. I mean I knew you lived in Southern California I should’ve known that we’d run into each other. You want to get some lunch or something? This is too weird.
Nolan, I don’t know how I feel about this. I should just block his number and call it a day, part ways with you, and order pizza at my apartment.
Look, I appreciate you unintentionally embarrassing me and telling me the truth about this Troy guy, but I’m sure as hell not going to try to find this guy with you.
