As soon as Calliope heard her phone buzzing nonstop, she fished it out of her purse. Every single message was from Gideon.
She couldn’t help but roll her eyes. Glancing over in Gideon’s direction, she wondered what the heck was wrong with him.
Honestly, she’d never realized just how nuts Gideon could be.
Without another thought, Calliope blocked his number.
Gideon, meanwhile, frowned when his texts suddenly wouldn’t go through. He shot a look toward Calliope, convinced that her blocking him meant she still cared. In some twisted way, that made perfect sense to him.
Of course, Calliope had no idea that Gideon’s mind worked in such a bizarre way.
Just then, Calista came over, needing to talk to Calliope about something, so he pulled her outside for a quick chat.
After a few minutes, Calista’s eyes lit up, like he’d just solved a riddle.
“Thanks, Aunt Callie, that makes so much sense now!”
He looked positively relieved and motioned for Calliope to head back in with her.
But, right on cue, Gideon rolled out.
“Calista, head back inside, will you? I need a word with Callie,” he said.
Calista didn’t look thrilled about leaving Calliope alone with him. He hesitated, glancing between the two of them.
“It’s fine, Calista,” Calliope reassured him. “I’ll be okay. Go on inside.”
