Chapter 80 My Treat

• I live in a little, old two-story Dutch revival I bought with my boyfriend Chris three years ago. Expensive, so… two roommates. Marcus and Jason, great guys and friends of Chris’ from college.
• The house is adorable on a tree-lined street in a quiet little neighborhood. It’s super cozy and I love hanging out in the tiny little backyard in the summer or lounging in front of the stone fireplace in the winter. There’s four bedrooms, four bathrooms, a huge kitchen. Way more than four people really need. Or so I thought.
• Chris travels a lot for work and he was in Southern California in Mid-March 2020. He thought he’d be safe to stay and finish his project and then head back in early April. It didn’t work out that way. He got stuck and ended up staying with his brother in California.
