"Where are you going after the party?"
"To my hotel."
"Do you want to get drinks?"
"Mom, you're doing a good job staying sober. Don't ruin it."
"We came all the way to Scotland, and you don't want me to have one beer?"
"You don't need alcohol."
"You think you're so much better than your family with your fancy engineering job."
"Can we celebrate without fighting? Grandma deserves a good birthday."
"She's sleep. It was too much excitement for her. I'm going back to my hotel. I hope you join me for drinks."
Fitz was happy when his phone rang. His mother waited for him to finish his call.
"I've been waiting for your call."
"Hi dad."
"Karen?"
"Yeah, it's me."
"Where's Olivia."
"She left her phone. It wasn't in her purse. Mom was really pretty when she left the house with Harrison."
"Where did she go?"
"They are going to a wedding. Harrison has to work at the wedding."
"He does?"
"Yeah, he said he would rather spend the day with mom, and mom said he needs to get to work and that she would come with him to the wedding. He said he wants to hangout with mom everyday and that she is still his best friend. Mom said he will always be her best friend and then he gave mom a breath mint and told her she needs it. Mom laughed and said my breath doesn't stink."
"What else did they say?"
"Harrison said he needs a different job and mom said his job is funny. He asked mom to go to the hotel with him after the wedding, and mom said yes and that she couldn't stay out late because grandma isn't keeping me the whole day. She is going to a concert with her friends when mom comes back from the wedding. I asked grandma can I go to the concert with her, and she said she is going to see Cameo, and that she would take me to see Sesame Street next month."
"Karen, I want you to call me when Olivia comes home."
"I'm ready for the Sesame Street concert."
"You can have anything you want when I come back to DC."
"Okay, bye dad."
"Alright Fitz. Last chance to get a beer with me."
"I'll call you later mom."
Fitz had to keep his emotions in check. Everyone was already asking why Karen didn't come to Scotland. He didn't want to answer anymore questions. He was ready to go back to DC. In a few more days, he would have a lot of questions for Olivia. He already didn't like Harrison.
