"How's the tree?"
"The tree didn't make it."
"I'm sorry, when's the funeral?"
"Tomorrow at sunset, the tree always looked the most beautiful in front of the summer sunset glow through the window in our living room."
"Wow, that's... deep."
"That tree was a symbol of innocence, fun, family and love. My feelings run deeper than deep my dear Liam, my love for that tree is unexplainable."
"I'm sorry for your loss, it must be difficult."
"It truly is.... But anyway, Guess what I brought today?"
"What?"
"The Vampire Diaries monopoly game!"
"Theirs a Vampire Diaries monopoly game? But why?"
"Because it's the best show on planet Earth is why."
"Uh-huh sure."
"You should come over one day, play it with me? No one else will play with me so I would really appreciate it. Plus it'll mean I get to spend more quality time with your fun and bubbly self."
"Fun and bubbly self? Don't believe it for a second but I'll still play the game with you. Anything for you, Ivy."
"You're so sweet, such a gentleman, my hero!"
"If you said it then it must be true."
