Where do you think I learned it from?

Warren

I’ll meet you tomorrow. 8 a.m. at Kallia Coffee?

Warren

I’ll take that as a yes.

Me

I’ll blow a kiss to the tree outside my window for you tonight.

Warren

How’d you know that’s my favorite perch?

Me

Warren

Damn it.

I should’ve known they couldn’t keep their mouths shut.

All they do is chirp.

Me

Pretty sure that’s called a bird song.

Warren

Pft, if that’s singing then I’m better than I thought.

Me

I’d pay to see that.

Warren

Then you can buy the drinks to get me drunk enough to actually do it.

Me

You’ve got yourself a deal.
