Jewel: I may have been half asleep but I'm pretty sure you said you'd call me two days ago.
Andrew: I was but my mom took me to the city again. Then Sophie had to go to the doctor, so we were there for a good two hours. I hate going to the city.
Jewel: Well maybe you just haven't been to the right places in Chicago then.
Andrew: What are you saying?
Jewel: You say you hate the city when you haven't even seen all of it. The push and shove of it, the beauty and braun. Or my favorite the food.
Andrew: Are you asking me on a date Jewel Smith?
Jewel: Not a date, just a night on the town, between two friends-strangers. If that makes sense.
Andrew: Perfect. Yea I guess that sounds alright, but we should meet somewhere in this area. Do you know where Memorial Park is?
Jewel: The one near McKinley School, right? Yea, I take my niece there whenever she comes to visit. Is that where you want to meet?
Andrew: That's the one. We can meet by the duck pond. Or the playground or wherever you want it doesn't matter to me.
Jewel: The duck pond is great. If I didn't know any better I would say you sound nervous.
Andrew: I am nervous. This will be the first time we see each other for the short month we've known of each others existence. How can you not be nervous.
Jewel: I never said I wasn't nervous. Of course I'm nervous, we'll be meeting each other in person, for the first time. It's like meeting your internet best friend, epic.
Andrew: You are a fangirl aren't you, I bet you even have a fanpage.
Jewel: Maybe I do, maybe I don't.
Andrew: You do, I know you do. I can feel it.
Jewel: What ever dude, when do you want to meet?
Andrew: How does the first sound?
Jewel: Cheesy as hell, the first sounds perfect.
Andrew: Yes it is cheesy, that's the whole point.
Jewel: You're a cheeseball full of cheesy cheese.
Andrew: You dork.
Jewel: I'm a dork but I'm an awesome dork, that you will be happy to see in two day time.
Andrew: Shut up Jew Jew. You know I don't have to show up right?
Jewel: But you will. I can guarantee it.
Andrew: We'll see now won't we. And Jewel.
Jewel: Yea Andrew.
Andrew: Get back to work.
Jewel: I will, but you called me first.
Andrew: You didn't have to answer. Later Jew Jew.
Jewel: Talk to you later.
