Transcript excerpt

Was in the bodega with my girlfriend, and the guy behind the counter was like, yo mommy. Who's paying? And I was like, me? And he was like, if you're with me, you'd never pay. And I was like, I'm with you right now. Stop flirting in riddles. Are these gummy bears free? And he was like, no. And I was like, okay. So you've already lied. Like, how are we gonna build a relationship on a foundation of lies? Like, we've been dating for, what, three seconds and, like, you're already making promises you can't keep. Then my friend slammed $3 on the counter and she's like, Olivia, come on. Let's go. Please leave the sky alone.
