Kieran: [Elizabeth, are we friends?
Elizabeth squinted, wondering why he was asking.
Elizabeth: [We don’t have to be.]
Kieran: [Don’t be like that!]
Elizabeth ignored Kieran and sent Joseph the agent’s Facebook contact, leaving a message: [Here’s Lila’s agent’s contact. I’ve already talked to Lila. You can hit them up later.]

Kieran kept blowing up her phone: [Elizabeth, let’s grab a bite, I need to talk to you.

Amanda teased, “Oh, you know our department well, huh?”
