Office was horrible software. That's why he liked it. Things were too slick these days. Apps. The kids were always on a few at the same time. When one app got old today two new ones came to replace them. Apps. Apps everywhere.Β

Jack and Alan were in the same class. Jack's family moved sophomore year. Imogen entered the next. So she never knew of Jack. Also back then Jack was a stick. Wasn't the shredded, mass of muscle that he is today. So she probably wouldn't recognize him.

"Well you two should get going no? Don't want to miss the dance."
"Mom. Can you stop calling it that? It's not a dance."
"Will there be no dancing?"
"People don't do that at our age anymore."
"Well why not?"
Jack smiled for himself and Alan. "We'll make sure to have a good time Lynn....

Alan smiled. This was his chance.
