charlie
why hello skeeter

it's nice of you to text me after i find out from robert that you called in sick this morning

skeeter
awe, you're welcome! 😚

charlie
but seriously, you okay?

skeeter
yeah

charlie
so, why aren't you at work? it's not like you to be abruptly absent from this bright and sunny september day

skeeter
i REALLY am sick

charlie
i've seen you shove antibiotics down your throat just to go to work when you've had the flu so i don't really see what's the big deal here 🤔

as a nurse, i was mildly concerned when you did that

as your best friend, i was quite impressed

skeeter
thank you!!

you're not working today, right??

charlie
i got you, idiot

already ordering chicken soup and packing you a whole BOTTLE of vitamin c

skeeter
awwEEE you're the best, charlie 💘💗💗💝💖💕💖💞💞💞💗💗

and make two orders for the chicken soup please

charlie
huh? why do you need two orders?

skeeter
i'll pay you don't worry

charlie
skeeter, why do you ─ UNLESS !!!!

skeeter
huh?

charlie
UNLESS

okay i'm going to ask carefully planned questions

skeeter
go ahead

charlie
so you're sick

skeeter
didn't we already establish that FACT???

charlie
okay that's a yes

how did you get sick? 😶

skeeter
i got stuck in the rain

charlie
why did you get stuck in the rain

skeeter
because i forgot to bring an umbrella

charlie
interesting

so, when i arrive at your apartment in 20 mins, you're going to be wrapped around a blanket and obnoxiously sneezing and coughing?

skeeter
yes

charlie
still doesn't explain the two orders of chicken soup though
