Chapter 35: Should have said no
Well, this is just fucking fantastic. As soon as I landed on USA soil, my phone started going crazy with notifications. I had 7 voice mails from Chris and about 10 texts. The last one saying “I guess you are done with me but I’m going to give it one last shot. I’ll call you…
