"Wait a sec, how's Eve? How has she been lately? I called her before but she never picked up, must be super busy with work, huh?"
"And you call yourself Eve's best friend? You don't even know what she's up to now. Wow, some bestie you are. Is it because of a guy that you're ditching friends and girlfriends for good?"
"Come on, that's not true! I have to take care of my husband, you know. He's been busy with work, and if I don't look after him, who will? You two already have your own circles, anyway. You can look after each other. Once things get better here, I'll have loads of time to hang out with you guys!"
Zoe said that, but Wyatt didn't believe her for a second.
"Alright, I've sent you the menu. Go make dinner now—don't let your precious hubby starve."
"Ugh, you eat early too! Work is work, but you still have to take care of yourself. I'll go cook then, thanks, thanks!"
Zoe hung up without even remembering to ask how Eve Sherman was doing these days.
