Nudged into action.

It's been an interesting few weeks. Far more interesting than usual, and Ivy finally gets a moment to sit down.
But once she's on her butt, she can't sit still.

Caleb's spending the Thanksgiving weekend with his grandparents and isn't due until Monday afternoon, and she's lonely. This why she gets the urge to pull out her cell phone, and scrolls through the list of names.

And stares, bites her lip, and begins texting a message.

Hi, Casper. I doubt you remember me. Ivy, from the Nexus. Got a little boy with asthma. If you do, I was wondering if you were busy? Maybe get a coffee or something.

He probably doesn't remember her, and it's been so long that she's had an actual friend so she'll be really pathetically awkward.

It takes a while, but a short text comes back.

'I do remember you. How are you and your boy? I'm not busy. Any place you have in mind?'

He did remember her. While he hadn't actively been thinking of her much, he had on occasion wondered what happened to her. And how her son was fairing. She had been worried about him when they met, after all.

And, well... He was always up for coffee, wasn't he?
