Saint Sherlock:
I'm laughing so hard rn
Jane Doe:
Eh? Why?
Saint Sherlock:
My Dad wants me to get married
Like asap
Idk what's wrong with that old man
Jane Doe:
Whaaaat?
Why?
You're only 25!
Saint Sherlock:
24 actually
Jane Doe:
Same thing next year.
Saint Sherlock:
Oui.
But, yeah.
I guess they think that I'd be "more
responsible"
Not that I'm not!
Parents just really have high and
unbelievable expectations to their
kids
Jane Doe:
I would say I know how that feels
but my mom is gone so my dad isn't that
strict on me.
Saint Sherlock:
No joke?!
Oh shit
I'm sorry, Jane
I didn't know
Jane Doe:
No, no!
It's alright!
It happened years ago anyway.
Saint Sherlock:
Do you miss her?
Jane Doe:
Of course. She was still my mom
but I believe that we have to celebrate them
rather than mourn their death. :)
Saint Sherlock:
You're one optimistic woman.
I'm so proud of you.
Jane Doe:
Hahaha!
Thank you!
I feel the same way to you, too!
Saint Sherlock:
Aw, you like me too?
Jane Doe:
...
You realized you just confessed to me, right?
Saint Sherlock:
That's the point
Jane Doe:
Wait, what?
Saint Sherlock:
I like you, Jane.
