"Do you think your turtle and my cats would get along?"
"Uhh... I mean I guess? why?"
"Well, considering we're friends now I think our pets need to be friends too."
"Oh, yeah of course... friends."
"Are you okay?"
"Mhmm yep, just dandy."
"Oh, well that's good then."
"Yeah..."
"We should set up a play date for them, I think it's very important to establish a good first impression and a lively environment for them to meet."
"Absolutely, I'll be in charge of location, you be in charge of... snacks? Do cats and turtles even eat the same things?"
"Um... maybe? I don't know. To be honest I don't really know what to feed my cats, sometimes I feed them cat biscuits, sometimes I feed them my left over dinners."
"I fear for your future children and for your cats, I mean if you're feeding them your left over dinner that could be dangerous, you didn't even know how to cook frozen chips!"
"Hey now, I did, I just needed reminding."
"Mhmm... sure thing Liam."
"It's true. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed yesterday."
"I did, very much so. Thank you."
"You're welcome, we should, uh, do it again? I mean only if you want to, I-"
"Liam, I would love too."
"Really? Great. How does next Saturday sound?"
"It sounds perfect."
"It's a date then. WAIT! not a date like you know, a date, I mean unless you want it to be a date like that but, uh, oh would you look at the time! I have to go... Okay, bye."
"Li-"
Beep Beep Beep
