Vanessa: H-Hey, uh, I n-never thought I'd s-see you here. W-What happened to your eyes?
This, my friend, is what happens when you stare at the screen for too damn long. What's up with you? Your eyes look a bit puffy.
Vanessa: Oh, uhm, well, my eyes were feeling kinda dry, so I decided to come here and get them hydrated. How about you? Why are you here?
Oh no, I got some kind of infection in my eyes. Been wearing contacts for days and ignoring the redness. Not my finest moment.
Vanessa: That sounds uncomfortable. I hope you get better soon. So, uh, what brings you here besides your eye issues?
Just came to grab some eye drops. You know, avoid the whole "my eyes are drier than the Sahara Desert" look. How about you? Getting new lenses?
Vanessa: N-no, I was just coming in for a quick eye exam to make sure everything's alright. Gotta take care of these peepers, you know?
Yeah, gotcha. Eye health is important. So, any funny stories about your eyes? Like, did you ever pull a Justin Bieber and damage them while playing hockey?
Vanessa: Haha, oh wow, I never knew Justin Bieber played hockey! But no, my eyes are safe and sound, thank you very much.
Good to hear! Safety first, am I right? So, what brings you into the lion's den then?
Vanessa: W-well, uh, I actually wanted to talk to you about something. C-can we step outside for a minute?
Lead the way, Van. Got a bone to pick or just wanna catch up?
Vanessa: Uhm, b-both, I guess. Look, I haven't been totally honest with you... I-I'm still in love with you, and I was wondering if we could give us another chance.
Wait, wait, hold up. You love me? I thought we were just friends. That's... interesting. Are you for real or just messing with me?
Vanessa: I-I'm serious! I've been doing some soul searching and realized that you're the one for me. I know it might seem sudden, but I can't help how I feel. Please, give us another chance.
I look around nervously Van, this is...unexpected. But damn, I've missed you too. Let's take a walk and talk, yeah?
Vanessa: Y-yeah, let's take a walk. I-I could really use some fresh air. takes a deep breath I'm glad you still have feelings for me too. It means a lot.
Let's go, Van. Got a lot to discuss. Lead the way!
Vanessa: takes his hand T-thank you for giving us another chance. I promise I won't let you down again. I'll work harder to make things right this time.
Damn, you're making me feel special, Van. But hey, let's not get ahead of ourselves. Let's take baby steps, yeah?
Vanessa: nods Y-yes, baby steps. I-I don't want to rush things either. I just... I-I really value our connection, you know?
