The Letter || Jasper and Sol
As soon as Sol saw the envelope she knew just who it was from. It had that faint scent o f freshly baked cookies and the familiar floral stationary. She opened it to read just what she had come to expect from Miri. She was an absolutely sweet woman, if not at times overbearing, and she just wanted to have Sol feel included. She ran over to Jasper to show him the letter so they could start to figure out a game plan.
“Okay so I think I should write back saying that the new guy at work is unnecessary because I have a boyfriend, and then she’ll inevitably pry and I’ll tell her it’s you. Which then of course means you’ll probably be getting your own invitation as well so she can figure you out. You have to be as nice as possible to her though because she’s sweet but fragile.” Okay maybe not fragile but she was so nice that Sol worried about hurting her feelings. Which was why she was doing the whole fake boyfriend thing in the first place and she was determined for it to work damn it. “You think you can do it? Now is the time to back out if you’re not sure.”
