My phone buzzes incessantly in my pocket as Austin Maguire drones on about something I absolutely could not care less about. Shifting in the very uncomfortable conference room chair, I pull out my phone and hold it under the table as I unlock the screen to my group chat with my older brothers and their girls.

Wyles Bros and Hoes

Hannah has changed the name of the chat to Wyles Bros and Hoes

Amelia

GIRL YES!

Jo

Obviously I am extremely obsessed with this.

Hannah

I knew you would be.

Elliot

Did we really need agroup chat name?

Jordan

And did it need to be this particular group chat name?

Noah

My wife named it, which means it’s the best group chat name ever.

I chuckle quietly at Noah’s extremely on brand response. He accidentally married his wife Hannah in Vegas this past summer, and then they fell in love, and literally no one has ever been more obsessed with anyone than he is with her.

Me

But why Wyles Bros and Hoes?

Jo

Because you’re the Wyles Bros.

Amelia

And we’re the Hoes, obviously. Keep up, Coop.

Me

I love a good rhyme but hoes?

Hannah

We’re reclaiming the term.

Jo

And I just love a good group chat name. I have enough chaos in my life. Names help keep the chats straight.

Jordan

Wife, I just love your chaos.
