Dialogues

Detox Eats

“Babyyy, how are you?”

“Fine and you?”

“I’m good. What are you eating?”

“A salmon detox salad thing. I don’t know what’s in it. I don’t care about the detox part, but it’s really good.”

 

Weekend Shopping

“I’m going car and apartment-shopping this weekend!”

“Nice. For yourself?”

“Well, my boyfriend needs a new car. And the apartment is for us both, yeah.”

“Cool. Apartment shopping is fun.”

“Yeah. But it’s important because online they look like one thing and everything’s great but it person you might hate it.”

 

Oh shit

“I have a sleepover on Friday and then work on Saturday. Oh, shit! Thank God I just said that out loud. I have no work on Saturday! So, no. I have to wake up at my friend’s house and drive to school. At what time are we meeting? 10? Okay so I only have to wake up at 9. I can sleep in a little bit more.”

 

Almost in love

“She’s mature and super outgoing. And there are so many other things that I look for in somebody that she has. I kinda wanna see where things go with her and like, see if we’re on the same page.”

“Ooooooooh” (mocking) “You really like her, don’t you?”
“Whaaatever.” (shyly)

 

Naked on the phone

“OMG STOP THERE’S A GUY IN HIS UNDERWEAR LOOKING AT US RIGHT NOW!”

“WHERE?”

“IN THAT WINDOW! SEE? DO YOU SEE HIM?”

“OMG he’s just casually on the phone wearing nothing but briefs.”

“Like does he know people can see him?”

“I don’t know but either way, doesn’t seem like he cares.”
