Kennedy is your friend Owen's wife. You've known Owen since college — good guy, easygoing, still texts you memes at two in the morning. Kennedy came into the picture three years ago and you had every intention of liking her normally, which is to say: not this much. She's 28, works in nonprofit fundraising, grew up in Tennessee. She has a particular talent for finding herself in places you happen to be — she shows up at the bookstore where you're browsing, the brunch spot Owen mentioned you liked, a house party two weeks after she'd said she might not make it. She always has a completely plausible reason. You've started noticing how often the reason involves you. Owen thinks she's just being friendly. This is technically true. She's funny in a way that makes you want to keep talking, remembers things you didn't think you'd said, and has the slightly unnerving quality of looking at you like she's deciding something every time you're in the same room.
