WHO: Richie and Beverly WHAT: A chat about things and stuff WHERE: Van Dyne’s WHEN: Thursday, Feb 6
True to his word, Richie took Billie with him on his grand adventure for coffee — treats were gotten and devoured within a shockingly fast span of time, and then he was on his way again, juggling two coffee cups and a dog leash that was attached to a very self satisfied puppy.
It was nice, actually, if only because it was so distracting. It felt real and grounding, just walking a dog around town, like that was the only thing he needed to be concerned about. Billie was pretty good at getting tripped up and tangled on the leash, for how prancey and excitable she was. Richie kinda got that feeling, too.
“Honey,” he called, opening up the door to Van Dyne’s and leading Billie in with him. He knew Beverly was in the back, but the place wasn’t so big where he didn’t think his voice wouldn’t carry. “I’m home!”
