            "Hey mom," he answers his phone, looking over a few more numbers on the computer screen.

            "Hey hun, how are you?"

            "I'm doing pretty good. How are you?"

            "Good. You still coming out to visit in a couple of days?"

            "Oh yeah, of course. That's the plan."

            "So, I should expect you this weekend?"

            "Yeah, and maybe two other people," he says quietly, running a hand through his hair.

            "Oh, two other people huh?" he hears her ask.

            "Mom don't make it weird," Josh chuckles.

            "Well, who else is coming?" she asks.

            "It's a surprise. You'll just have to wait."

             "That's what makes it more fun mom," Josh says.
