MHA #2 | Wednesday Evening
Aug. 25th, 2021 07:32 amIt wasn't often that Diego spoke to Pogo, less often that Pogo called him, so when his phone rang that evening he knew that it was probably important.
And it was.
"He what?" Diego asked. "That's not--I just saw him."
...
"What do you mean he hasn't left the house in---oh." It all made sense now, why his father had visited last weekend. It was easy to brush off as a coincidence at the time since he hadn't known he was dead. Now...
"When's the funeral?" he asked. "Okay. Okay, I'll be there."
Diego hung up a few moments later and immediately shot off a text to Five. This was news best told in person.
[For a few!]
