Matt sighed. "I'm not angry anymore, but I'll still get back at you, just wait and see."
I smiled. If someone had told me a week ago that I would become friends with the character I created in my lonely apartment and that I would be surrounded by others beyond my family—honestly, I would have labeled them a psycho.
"So why do you think the president is calling us?"
