They talked on the phone and texted, and eventually, Noah invited her to his house. When he offered to send a plane ticket for her, Sally said she would drive, and the day before she left, Noah sent her snacks for the car, a map, and a California T-shirt via FedEx. How sweet! On the way, Noah, worried about her, told her to keep texting, and Sally and Noah texted throughout the long journey. Sally was constantly lost in her thoughts about whether their relationship was a friendship or love, and she kept reflecting on the lines he said in emails and texts. It seemed that she was stuck on the Danny Horst rule, believing that a relationship between an ordinary woman and a male celebrity was still impossible. Noah seemed to handle Sally's strange questions more calmly now. As she was almost at Noah's house, Sally sent another awkward text, asking, 'Would it be better if I stayed at a hotel?' and immediately regretted it. Noah was taken aback again but responded calmly, and I felt like I might end up falling in love with this man.
