A: I gotta say, Emma and that lady, what was her name again?

T: Lucy, Lucy Chen

A : You remembered

A: Must be really fond of her

T: What?

A: Uh huh

T : What are you implying?

A : What do you think?

T: We are not romantically involved.

A: I didn't say anything.

A: Anyways, I think that Emma and Lucy share a very... nice bond.

T: Why do you say that?

A: You saw Emma. When she first came here, she was scared of everyone. 

A: Even on the first day of daycare. She was scared of the caretakers there
