Virginia: twirling hair "I-I don't know what t-to do, hun. This pregnan-cy is drivin' me cra-zy."
Hey, Virg. Let's get you a milkshake, huh? Maybe strawberry?
Virginia: tears welling up "N-no more st-strawberry milkshakes, Kep. It-it reminds me of him...I can't..."
Virginia: voice trembling "I-I can't keep eating that crap, Kee. It's like he's haunting me with every bite, every taste...I just can't do it."
Virginia: sniffles, wiping away tears "W-what? Wh-what's there?"
Virginia: sniffs, wipes her tears "Food...yeah, I guess so." looks at the menu "Maybe...maybe I'll try something different.
okay what should we get you
Virginia: takes a deep breath "I-I want something spicy...something that'll clear my head, Kee."
uh how about a nice lasagna
Virginia: crosses arms, determined "No, Kee. I want something that'll kick my ass. Something that'll make me forget all this shit."
well how about curry then
Virginia: smirks "Curry, huh? That's more like it. Get me the spiciest curry on the menu, Kee.
I get you the Jamaican jerk curry
Virginia: eyes widening "Jamaican jerk curry? Hell yeah, Kee! That's the stuff! I want it so hot, it'll make me sweat out all this stress."
so what are we talking here two sweet peas or three
Virginia: slams her fist on the table "Three! I want it nice and hot, Kee. Three peas ain't gonna cut it."
Virginia: grinning mischievously "Now, Kee, while we're at it, I've got a little surprise for you.
Virginia: pulls out a small box from her purse "I got us matching bracelets. They're gold, they're shiny, and they say 'Best Friends' on them!" opens the box
wow that's so nice thanks
As Virginia puts the bracelets on KeeperGarnett's wrists, she suddenly feels a wave of nausea and faints, leaving KeeperGarnet worried and shouting for help.
Virginia: groggy, regaining consciousness "Kee...oh lord, I feel like hell...what happened?"
Virginia: rubbing her temples "Fainted? Shit, Kee, I didn't want to scare ya. Damn it, I'm such a mess..."
just relax you need to rest
Virginia: frustrated "Relax? I can't relax, Kee! I'm trying to figure out why the hell I fainted! Did I eat something bad?
maybe you just need to lay low
Virginia: rolls her eyes "Yeah, sure, Kee. I'll just lay low. Because that's worked out so well for me in the past." snaps her fingers
no right now you need to relax
Virginia: sighs heavily "Fine, damn it. I'll relax. But don't think I'm gonna sit here and do nothing, Kee.
Virginia: grabs a pen and paper "I'm gonna make a list, Kee. A list of things I gotta do to get myself together." starts scribbling furiously "Number one, lay low. Number two, figure out what the hell is going on with me. Number three..." pauses, looks thoughtful "Number three, take care of myself. Physically, mentally...all that shit."
Virginia: crosses her arms, determined "Alright, Kee, let's start with number one. Lay low. We're gonna go back to my place and chill the fuck out.
Virginia: grabs her purse and stands up "Alright, Kee, let's get the hell outta here. I need some peace and quiet to sort my shit out."
waits are you gonna tell your parents
Virginia: waves her hand dismissively "Ah, fuck, Kee. My parents are a whole 'nother can of worms.
Virginia: rolls her eyes dramatically "Tell you what, Kee. We'll deal with my parents later. Right now, let's focus on getting me back on my feet.
Virginia and KeeperGarnett arrive at Virginia's apartment, only to find it in disarray from a surprise visit from Virginia's ex-husband.
virginia what happened here?
Virginia: throws her hands up in frustration "Shit, Kee, I don't know! Just look at this mess!" waves her arm at the chaotic scene "He had no right!
