Grady quickly pulled himself together and sighed, "It's all ancient history.

Chester's just the kind of guy who loves to reminisce. Otherwise, he'd probably have a bustling family by now, just like your parents."

Mirabella raised an eyebrow. "So Chester's a bit of a romantic, huh?"

Grady chuckled, not offering much more. "What's got you so curious about Chester today, Miss Mira?"

"I'm just intrigued by him," Mirabella said, tapping her knee thoughtfully. Chester had been a fixture on her phone for ages, so it made sense to learn a bit more about him.

Grady grinned, "You'll get to meet him in person tomorrow."

"Yeah," Mirabella nodded, already planning not to show up empty-handed.
