My day at work had been so long, and all I wanted to do was get home to rest and relax. I was so close I could feel it when I heard my phone buzz. Who could it be, I thought? I put the car in park and checked the message. It was from my best friend. Patty: I can't wait for the Halloween party tonight. I'm so excited to see Josh. Thank you for going with me, Maddie.
