The next morning, Riley woke up much later than usual.

She stared at the sunlight slipping through the curtains, then lay there looking at the ceiling for a while.

“...Morning?”

She checked the clock beside her bed.

10:12.

“Not really.”

She was about to close her eyes again when her phone buzzed.

The screen was covered in notifications.

Messages.

The group chat.

Numbers she didn’t recognize.

Even news alerts.

  • Catch Me, Maybe   Chapter 156: Five Minutes Does Not End in Five Minutes

    It did not end in five minutes.Twenty minutes later, Riley and the others peeked back into Grant’s office.Benji was still exactly where they had left him.The only difference was that he had borrowed a chair.“He moved in,” Riley said.Benji turned.“We’re at a good part.”“What happened to five minutes?”“It passed.”“I know.”Riley looked at Grant.“You were supposed to stop him.”“I tried.”“You tried?”“I finished the explanation. Then he asked another question.”“That’s why you’re not supposed to answer!”“I started finding it interesting too.”“You too?!”Tasha laughed from where she was leaning against the doorframe.The large display showed sales, inventory, shipping, reservations, operating status, and other figures that varied from company to company.Benji pointed at it.“But every company uses a different system, right?”

  • Catch Me, Maybe   Chapter 155: Do Not Let Benji Into the Office

    On Saturday afternoon, Riley was sitting in the Whitmore mansion living room, looking at her phone.Jax, Tasha, and Benji had come over that day.Not that they had any particular plans. Jax was sprawled across the couch watching TV, Tasha was flipping through a magazine, and Riley was sitting beside her answering messages.The problem was Benji.“Where’s Benji?”Riley looked up.Without taking his eyes off the television, Jax answered, “He was here a minute ago.”“That does not answer the question.”“Went to get water, maybe?”Tasha closed her magazine.“Ten minutes ago?”The three of them went quiet.Riley stood.“We should find him.”“How do you lose Benji in this house?”Jax finally sat up.“Because it’s huge?”“This feels like losing a kid at the zoo.”“Close enough.”“He’s gonna be offended if he hears you.”“First we have to find him.”

  • Catch Me, Maybe   Chapter 154: The Regular Who’s Really Picky About Pie

    It was Mia’s fourth day at the diner.By Saturday afternoon, the lunch rush had finally started to die down.Riley was wiping an empty table when the bell over the front door rang.“Welco—”She looked up and immediately smiled.“You’re back again.”“Are you ever going to improve that greeting?”Charles walked in.Marcus was, naturally, right behind him.“You’re a regular. It’s fine.”“You say that every time.”“Because you keep coming back.”Charles did not argue and headed toward his usual table by the window.Marcus followed.Mia approached with an order pad in hand.“I’ll get them.”“Go ahead.”Riley gave her no explanation.Mia still had no idea who Charles was.From a short distance away, Riley watched her step up to the table with her usual smile.“Hi. Know what you want?”“What pies do you have today?”That was his first que

  • Catch Me, Maybe   Chapter 153: We Have a New Hire

    On Wednesday afternoon, Riley came in through the diner’s back door and immediately found Nora walking toward her a little faster than usual.“Perfect timing.”“I don’t like the sound of that.”“We’re not moving a couch today.”“How do you know about that?”“You spent half your last shift complaining that your arms hurt.”“That was Jax’s fault.”“Sure. Anyway, new hire.”Nora tilted her head toward the dining room.At the end of the counter stood a girl Riley had never seen before.She looked about Riley’s age, maybe a little younger. Her black hair was tied back at shoulder length, and the borrowed uniform she was wearing still looked too new on her. Her hands were folded neatly in front of her, and every time someone spoke to her, even her spine seemed to straighten.“She starting today?”“Yep. Mia Lopez. Seventeen. Mostly after school and weekends.”“Huh.”“You’re with her today.”

  • Catch Me, Maybe   Chapter 152: Elliot Is Looking at Price Tags

    At lunch on Monday, Daniel was choosing a drink from the university store.Beside him, Elliot was holding two bottles.That in itself was not unusual.The unusual part was that Elliot had been staring at the shelf below them instead of the labels for the past several moments.“What are you doing?”“Looking at the prices.”“I can see that.”Daniel followed his gaze.“Why are you taking it so seriously?”“This one is twenty ounces. This one is sixteen.”“Okay.”“But the smaller one costs less.”“Usually how that works.”“The larger one is slightly cheaper per ounce.”Daniel went quiet.“...Who are you?”“What?”“What happened to Elliot?”“I went to the supermarket yesterday.”“Can supermarkets change people this much?”Elliot continued comparing the two bottles with complete seriousness.“But I’m not going to drink that much today, so I thi

  • Catch Me, Maybe   Chapter 151: If It’s the Same Thing, Buy the Cheaper One

    On Sunday evening, Elliot came home carrying grocery bags in both hands.When a member of the household staff moved to take them in the entry hall, Elliot said, “I’ve got it,” and continued toward the kitchen himself. Most of what they had bought that afternoon had gone back to Riley’s apartment, but he had picked up a few things that caught his attention along the way.He set the bags on the kitchen counter just as Catherine appeared from the other side of the room.“Welcome home. You bought quite a lot.”“Not that much.”“It’s unusual to see you come home carrying supermarket bags.”“I went shopping with everyone.”“With Riley and the others?”“Yeah.”Catherine nodded as though that explained everything and looked into one of the bags.“What did you buy?”“This.”The first thing Elliot pulled out was the mysterious popcorn flavor Benji had found.The package featured a large picture of what
