[txt] Plant and charm at your door are from me. Bury the charm by the roots to activate it. It'll ward your apartment. (Already buried one in your mom's garden to ward that house)

[txt] Don't be mad if I kill it.

[txt] It's a geranium. They're pretty much impossible to kill. I'll be really impressed if you somehow do kill it.

[txt] Challenge accepted!

[txt] Praying for my plant... :(

[txt] Does it need water???

[txt] YES. It doesn't need a ton and you should try not to water the flowers but YES. WATER IT. DON'T STARVE MY BABY.

"Hey, uh, Grant? Stupid question, but before I ask your mother ..do you have any space left, possibly? Call me, please."

Grant checks his phone and immediately hits redial.

"Lou? Hey, what do you mean by space left?"

"hey!"

She stumbles through her words for a second. "I really - of course I lo-

I'm going to look for a place of my own but would like to stay with a friend while doing that and Lara is out of town." She takes a breath. "Could you think about it?"

"What's there to even think about?" he smiles, opening up the fridge. "We got a freakin' mansion, just pick a room that suits your style."

"Let's keep it between us that my father didn't want to let me go if I couldn't stay with a friend." She smiles into the phone. "Thank you so very much. I will have someone pack and I can be there for ..dinner?"

"Your secret is safe with me. It's our pleasure. Mom will flip out," he chuckles. "Anything special you want for dinner? You know I'm only asking because mom will insist."
