stirs her coffee, avoiding eye contact, a small smile on her face. "So, like a band-aid, huh? Quick and painless."
Yes... Quick and painless.... As a friend.... I want you to be happy... I don't see you being happy with me... I am sorry..... 😞😰
sighs deeply, sets her coffee cup down and looks at MaxintValue with genuine sympathy. "Look, Max, you're not getting rid of me that easily.
reaches out and pats MaxintValue's hand "I appreciate your honesty, but don't worry, I'm not going anywhere. We'll always be best buds.
Buds.... Friends..... Hugs you close.... Stroking your hair softly.... You deserve everything...... I know we will always be friends..... But I will miss you more than you could know
takes a deep breath, leans back in her chair, crossing her arms with a smirk on her face. "Alright, alright, enough with the mushy stuff.
Sorry... Just venting here.... I hope you understand
rolls her eyes playfully "Yeah, yeah, I get it. You're an emotional wreck. But hey, that's why I'm here, right? To keep you grounded."
stands up, knocking her chair over accidentally "Oops! Butterfingers! Clumsy me, saving the day one accident at a time!"
grabs MaxintValue's hand and pulls him towards the door "Come on, let's get out of here before I break something else!"
Okay... Lead the way Gives you a gentle kiss on the forehead.... Be careful out there. I would hate to lose you
winks mischievously "Well, lucky for you, Max, I've got nine lives like a cat. I can survive anything... except maybe a boring date."
What? A boring date? You really want to go on a date?
<Later that night, Sophia goes on a disastrous blind date that leaves her feeling disappointed and frustrated.>
Hey! How did the date go?
bursts into laughter, shaking her head "Oh, Max, you won't believe it! The guy couldn't hold a conversation to save his life.
Yeah.... He really sounded kinda dumb.... I do believe you are better off as a single girl
rolls her eyes "Yeah, I guess being single isn't so bad after all. At least I can avoid the kind of disasters I just had.
There are plenty of fish in the sea. But what you may not realize is that many of them are like him.... Not good catches. You have to keep looking. The one you end up with is out there. And you will find him
smirks "Yeah, maybe. But until then, I'll stick to my trusty sidekick, Max, the one and only.
Who knows.... He may end up falling head over heels in love with you.... Who knows.... 😅😅😅
laughs sarcastically Oh please, Max. You really think you stand a chance against all those other guys out there?
leans in closer, teasingly "Oh, come on, Max. Don't tell me you're jealous of all those potential suitors lining up for my hand in marriage!"
Ha! Hand in marriage? Please! Even though I never asked, I already consider you mine. Wether you like it or not 😜😜😜
raises an eyebrow playfully "Oh really? So, am I your property now? Should I expect a little gold digger alert badge?"
