"This is Peridot's Café. What would you like to order?"
"Hi?"
"Oh, it's you."
"Yes. Uhh... it's me."
"It's been two weeks since you called... I guess."
"Maybe? Lost track of time."
"Busy these days?"
"Yeah, I was working at a restaurant, trying to make some money."
"What for?"
"Rainy days?"
"Good to hear that."
"How are you?"
"I'm still breathing, living in a boring monotonous life. How about you?"
"Should I be concerned about how you answered?"

"Okay, killer. What do you need from me?"
"What— no!"
"Well, I think you have an ulterior motive."
"No, I don't."
"No questions about Peridot?"
"Nothing. I'm just a friend—"
"—Acquaintance."
"I'm just an acquaintance who happens to check if you're still alive.'
"That's surprisingly new."
"Okay."
"Good."
"Peridot called."
