“Who’s Perry?” Terri asked.
“Perry is a…a baby…animal…that I found outside this morning and took over to the pet shop. Have you gals met Caleb? He works in the pet shop and is absolutely dreamy.”
“Wait, who are Perry and Caleb again?” Jade asked.
Millie blew out a breath. “Weren’t you listening? Caleb is the gorgeous guy who works at the pet shop. He’s a real sweetheart too.”
“And you met him how?” Jade frowned. Her grandmother didn’t even own a pet. What was she doing visiting the pet shop?
“I met him when I took Perry, the rescued animal, to him,” Millie said. “He’s helping me make sure Perry is safe.”
Jade ran a hand across her brow. “And what kind of animal is Perry?”
Millie pursed her lips. “Perry is a possum.”
Terri laughed. “Perry, the possum! That’s cute!”
“Grandma! You picked up a freaking possum? Are you out of your mind?”
“I didn’t pick up the possum…exactly. I kinda scooped it into my makeup bag.”
“Ewww!” Jade threw both hands up to the sides of her head “Grandma, that’s nasty! You’ve got to throw all that makeup away—”
“Jade, please. I certainly didn’t put a possum in my makeup bag with my makeup still in it. Besides, Caleb threw the bag away and put Perry in a box until he or she comes out of… Until the possum wakes up.”
“Oh. My. Gosh. Grandma, please tell me you didn’t take a dead possum into the pet shop to have them try to save it!”
