Page 56 of That Time I Kissed My Beachfront Boss

Not to make you all feel bad, but you missed out on a great time last night.

TESS

Honestly, you’re the last person I expected to like living in Abieville.

OLIVIA

What can I say? I make this place cool.

DARBY

Since when is Abieville cool?

OLIVIA

Since we had the whole pub to ourselves. Let me tell you, we LIT IT UP.

TESS

Lit it up? I changed my mind. Liv’s the dork - LOL!

OLIVIA

Seriously, though. We had the best time. You need to check all the social media accounts for The Beachfront. I’ll wait …

DARBY

Already on it. Big Mama was there? Seriously?!

OLIVIA

Yep. Mom brought her. She was a surprise guest star. The Betty White of the Adirondacks.

TESS

Ha! And you actually gave her a karaoke mic. OMG she’s singing “I Will Survive.”

DARBY

Hey, wait a minute. That’s my anthem!

TESS

You and Angus have been together for years, Darbs. You can’t claim a breakup song as your anthem when your boyfriend’s totally devoted to you.

DARBY

It’s karaoke. Not reality. But I’ll defer to Big Mama. She’s got some pipes!

MAC

How many people were there, Liv?

OLIVIA

Just our family. But you know, there are a lot of us. Originally, I only invited the cousins, but word got around, and everybody showed up.
