“I guess some things never change,” Big John said.              “We kinda planned on that.” Everyone laughed, even me.

 

“We just wanted to give you a warm welcome,” Lisa said. “We all missed you,” Max said, “whether you believe us or not.”

“Oh I'm believing it.”  I smiled.  “You have no idea.”  We all started laughing and gathering around the table.
