Alana | Jared
"Welcome to Karen's Florist shop. How may -"
"Why do you sound cautious?"
"Yale girl, hey."
"I asked a question."
"I mistook a customer for you yesterday. It was embarrassing."
"You what? HAHAHAHAHAHA."
"Oh, shush! Don't you ever stop laughing?"
"It's healthy to laugh. You know the saying - laughter is the best medicine— don't you?"
"And if you laugh for no reason, you need medicine."
"If you're going to use Google for witty comebacks, at least credit it, Jared."
"Wuh? I wasn't — oh, God. I read it somewhere years ago. I never claimed it was—"
"I'm messing with you, chill. You're so gullible."
"Hey! What's that supposed to mean?"
"You sound like Cat from Victorious, heh! I wish I could send you the crying laughing emoji."
"Who in the world is Cat?"
"You know, the character Ariana Grande played on Victorious? Like on Nickelodeon?"
"..."
"What planet did you live on? You missed your entire childhood. How can you live like this? You should be banished from-"
"Slow down your train, Lana. It's not the end of the world."
"B-but how can you say that?"
"Don't shame me, Lana. Oh, and the crying laughing emoji back at you."
"You're a disgrace to the entire young generation."
"Thanks?"
"Jared."
"Yes, that's me."
"Ugh. You can be so annoying."
"Lana, talk about yourself."
Click.
"Aaaand she hung up again."
