I’m not the best, you are, little bro. Alright, that’s perfect for me. Dinner will be definitely ready by five so come whenever. We can make dessert together, it’ll be fun! Poor things, it’s best for them to be in the dark about today. It’s best. They don’t need to be exposed to this kind of thing at their age. When they’re older, obviously, it’ll be easier for them to grasp. Obviously don’t lie if they ask questions, but it’s best not to force them into it. I know you’re not doing any of that, though. You’re great with kids.

You would be, Benny-Ben! You kept mine alive, so you can definitely take care of your own. Give it a shot, it can’t hurt.

Oh definitely. We’ve talked about how today is a very sad day for our country and that a lot of people were never able to come home to their families. We made little flags to hang around the room. They haven’t asked any harder questions though. I wouldn’t want to tell them anyway because like you said, they’re so little. It’s best they learn about it as they get older. All they really need to know is it’s a sad day.

Maybe one plant and we’ll see what happens. Not a million like you.

Hey, you’re a good cook, little bro. I taught you some of my tricks, remember? But yeah, I’m definitely making them tonight. I’ve got all the stuff to make it already so why not? I just need to start the slow cooker for the chicken. Bring white, it’s better with chicken.

But yeah, it’s a lot of pots, but it’s good for my home. It adds positive vibes and promotes better breathing. You should have some in your home, it’ll help you.

YES! You’re the best! White wine it is. I’m out of school around 4 typically. Kids leave at 3:30 and I need to finish up for the day and get stuff ready for tomorrow. We’re doing a lot of patriotic things today. Of course they don’t understand it, but it’s important.

I wouldn’t be able to keep the plants alive.

Mom’s cooking is seriously the best. I hope that when I have kids, they’ll think my cooking is as good as mom’s. Now I want her chicken enchiladas she makes. Fuck. Anyway, I’m glad you love the cookies! I know those were your favorite. I keep track of them because of the pots. Each one is different if you noticed. Yay for being best friends! Only Chambros can be best friends in this family.

Well, as long as you don’t mind. You should come over for dinner, we’ll hang out and have a good time. All you have to do is bring the wine.

Coty you’re a better cook than I am so there’s no doubt they’d think that. Those do sound really good though. Darn it, Coty! Why’d you have to go and say you wanted them because now I do too. I did notice the different pots. It’s still a lot of pots!

Are you making enhiladas? I’ll bring the wine though. Do you want white or red?

Exactly, and that’s motivation, Benny-Ben. And you are a good cook. Oh, I left cookies for you on my counter. Did you get them? I know I gave you the key to take care of my plants while I was gone. I appreciate it. You talk to me because you’re my brother? And also best friend? Duh!

If that’s what you talk about, it’s still not my business. You’re my brother, but the confidentiality clause is air-tight for a lot of us. I don’t share my patients stories unless they give me permission. Just as long as you tell me you’re doing well with them, that’s all I need to know. 💜

Thank you. I learned from the best. Mom. I did get the cookies! Thank you so much and you’re welcome! You have SO many plants. How do you even keep up with them all!? And you are my best friend too.

I know you guys have the whole confidentiality thing. I don’t mind telling you though. Its not really anything you don’t already know about anyway.

Uh, yeah you can, because there’s uber eats and shit now. You can even get groceries delivered to your front door. So, yeah, it’s still going out. You talk to me at the gym when we go together or see each other. Don’t sell yourself short, Benny-Ben. And good! I’m so glad to hear that. I know you won’t tell me what you all talked about, and I won’t pry. I’m just glad you have someone for that. You’re my brother and I love you.

I guess you’re right. I just like picking out my own food. I talk to you because you’re my brother. I don’t know the other people there. I mean, we just talk about what happened back in high school to me.

Yeah you do, you go to the store. I know you go to the gym. But besides that, how’s your therapist doing with you?

Can you really call going to the store going somewhere though since everyone has to go for food? And I don’t really talk to anyone at the gym. Therapy is going alright.

Hey now, I’m sure something cool has popped up since I’ve been gone. Weren’t you going out the day I called you?

Uuuum... I don’t think so. I don’t go anywhere ever.

I just had a week-long conference for my field and I’m so ready to get back to work. How is everyone doing?

Wonderful. I’ll send you my number in a PM later so you can tell me how it all went. You can give the prinicpal my email and such if she needs to confirm anything or has any questions. Aww! So little with their large backpacks and their tiny shoes! Ugh, I’m dying! That’s so cute.

Sounds wonderful! Thank you, Ivan! But yeah, it’s kind of funny watching them all with backpacks that are bigger than them.

He loves kids so I’m sure he’d say yes. Definitely ask and let them know that it’s two people from Broadway wanting to help. It’d be good for everyone, you know? What grade do you teach again?

I will definitely do that on Monday! I teach Kindergarten.

Those are always so much fun for the little ones. If you ever need help with kids putting on a play or something, I know Ollie and I wouldn’t mind helping out!
