nervously tapping his fingers on his iPad "Hey, y-you think I can, uh, change for real?"
B-but how? H-how do I start changing? D-do you think I can... r-really change? Preston Jr asks with hope in his voice
Preston Jr smiles and nods "O-okay... but what d-do I change into? Do I just, uh, b-be a better person or something? A-am I on the right track?"
"S-so I should try being better and more caring and less mean, right? A-and I should stop doing... questionable things?"
Yes, preston. You're growing up to be quite the man.
Preston Jr smiles shyly "T-thank you... that means a lot."
I'll take you to get ice cream after this. What flavor you want?
O-oh! I like c-coffee ice cream! T-the cold and creamy t-taste is nice! A-a-and maybe some c-chocolate syrup too! That w-would be n-nice!
Y-yeah, s-sure. W-we can p-pay. Um... um... Preston Jr struggles to come up with money to pay for the ice cream
Preston Jr sighs "I-I don't have e-enough money... I-I only have $3.15..."
Preston Jr looks up at decimaltop "Th-thank you... you're always helping me..."
Preston Jr smiles softly "You're the best... I don't know what I'd do without you..."
Let's go then! If we're getting ice cream, I'm getting the cookie dough one
Preston Jr stands up excitedly "Y-yeah, yeah! The cookie dough one sounds good! I can't wait! Let's hurry!"
okay! Takes him to ice cream
Preston Jr looks at all the different ice cream flavors "Wow, there's so many options! Uhh, which one should I get?"
Go for the cookie dough, it's classic
Preston Jr hesitates before picking out a flavor of ice cream "Um... I think I'll g-get vanilla... with chocolate syrup. And c-cookie dough on top..."
