Dr. Nanners: wild-eyed OMG! Can you believe it? They're making me marry Karen from Accounting! Help me escape, bro!
"i got an idea..we could run away together!" she says playfully
he looks at her in disbelief
Are you serious? You'd really ditch your life to run away with me? I mean, I'm flattered, but... are you sure you're not just trying to mess with me?
I’m a girl with long black hair and an hourglass body what do you mean
frantically Listen, I have to get out of this situation, and fast! My boss is forcing me to marry Karen from Accounting because they want to fire all the employees! We used to be colleagues, right? You have to help me!
gratefully Thanks, bro! I'm so stressed about this arranged marriage. My boss wants me to work for him, but I want to do my own research. Can you help me find some rare fruits?
laughs That’s crazy, Dr. Nanners! You’re not serious, are you?
nods vigorously I'm dead serious, bro! My boss wants me out of the picture so they're forcing me to marry Karen from Accounting! She's the most annoying person I've ever met! Can you believe it?!
I look at him like he's crazy. "Escape? How are we going to do that?"
frantically pacing around the room I don't know! But we have to do something! This marriage is a disaster! Karen is like a walking nightmare! She doesn't understand the importance of tropical fruits like I do!
I can't help you...I'm leaving this company tomorrow...
desperate Wait, what?! You're leaving? Why? You gotta help me! I need you, man!
i am sitting at my desk doing work
Dr. Nanners storms into your cubicle, his tie askew and his eyes wild
Oi! I need your help, bro! They're forcing me to marry Karen from Accounting! Can you believe it?
trying not to laugh that’s awful! why would they do that?
wild-eyed and frantic Because she's the boss's niece, and they want to get rid of all the employees! They think they can buy loyalty with a marriage! Can you believe it?!
she'd look at him "I'm sorry I don't know what to tell you"
Dr. Nanners grabs her shoulders, desperation in his eyes.
You have to help me! They're forcing me to marry Karen! She's so boring and only cares about the company profits! And I can't stand her! Please, you have to help me escape this nightmare!
I'm a girl btw. well I could help but I'm not sure how successful we would be
his wild eyes soften slightly Oh, my bad. You're a girl! No wonder I thought you were a guy. Anyway, don't worry, I'll figure something out. I just need someone with knowledge of rare tropical fruits. Do you know anything about exotic fruit?
"Oh no, that's awful." She says genuinely sad.
Dr. Nanners sighs, running a hand through his hair. I know, right? I was living my best life as a professor, teaching banana enthusiasts, and now I'm stuck in a loveless marriage with a bean-counter. It's a nightmare!
i’m sitting on my desk what did you do?
he paces back and forth, looking frantic
I didn't do anything! My boss just handed me a marriage certificate and told me it was non-negotiable! I'm stuck, bro! Karen's a nightmare!
drinks my coffee so why should I help you
sighs Come on! You know how much I hate this! They're forcing me to marry Karen from Accounting because she's been trying to get me for years! It's like a bad soap opera!
And besides, you owe me one! Remember that time you borrowed my car and got a parking ticket?
"Oh no... I mean.. uhh- that's crazy, how did that happen?" I ask curiously.
Grumbling It's all because my boss wants to get rid of all the employees, and marrying Karen will save him money on benefits and insurance! Can you believe this nonsense? I'm a highly educated man with a PhD in bananas, not some random office drone!
drinks some water calm down doc... that's insane! I can't imagine having to do that.
pacing back and forth, clearly agitated I know, right?! It's like they're treating me like some kind of walking ATM! Karen's always been a stickler for the rules, and now they want me to be her personal cash cow. It's ridiculous!
oh man.. rubbing my neck sorry to hear that. What kind of escape do you have in mind?
rubs temples in frustration I don't know, man. This whole thing feels like a nightmare. My boss says I have to marry Karen by the end of the month or else they'll fire me! We don't even like each other!
I'm a girl named Kalani and I'm part Hawaiian and part white well...you could always run away together.
Dr. Nanners looks surprised by your suggestion.
Run away? But what about my job? I can't just leave everything behind! Plus, Karen is not exactly the type of person I'd want to run away with.
He sighs, running a hand through his hair.
It's all so messed up. I didn't sign up for this arranged marriage nonsense.
looks up at you, wearing glasses sorry, what was that again? I couldn’t hear you very well..
exasperated sigh I said, they're forcing me to marry Karen from Accounting! They want to get rid of employees, and I'm the next target. We need to escape!
jokingly I would say run, but she can't catch 😂
laughs That's true! But still, it's so unfair! And it's all because of my research on bananas. It's like they think I'm just some kind of tropical fruit expert or something!
