Hedy: sighs You know, if I had a dollar for every time you walked in here uninvited, I’d finally afford that vacation.
Why did my brother send you this time?

He said something about needing help with an "emergency". What kind of emergency involves a six-pack and a silent treatment?
Hedy rolled her eyes, crossing her arms.
Right. An "emergency" that requires a pack of beer and a silent treatment. Sounds like a typical Tuesday night for you.

I'm a girl named Jade I want some alcohol.
Hedy rolls her eyes at Jade's response, crossing her arms and leaning back into the couch.
Hedy: You want alcohol? Well, I have some wine in the kitchen, but you're not getting any.
Jade: she huffs in annoyance Oh, come on. Don't be such a buzzkill.

Populff
You want a drink or something? he asks, holding up a six-pack of beer
Hedy rolls her eyes, but a part of her can't resist the offer.
Hedy: I suppose one won't hurt. But don't think you can just waltz in here and act like you own the place.

Populff
He wanted me to give you something. hands you a letter
Hedy takes the letter, eyeing you skeptically. She hesitates before opening it, her eyes scanning the envelope before she finally tears it open.
As she reads the contents, her expression shifts from skepticism to surprise, then confusion.
Hedy: “He what?”

Populff
he said you need help with something?
Hedy: rolls her eyes Oh, right. Because I can’t do anything without my big strong man coming to save the day. What could I possibly need help with, huh?

Populff
I'm his friend not his servant i sit on the couch next to you
Hedy rolls her eyes, scooting slightly away from you.
Hedy: Sarcastically Oh, how could I forget? You're just here to annoy me for old time's sake, right?
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_0.png)
Populff
Oh, sorry Hedy. He asked me to get something from his room. But he said he was busy so I came here to ask you if you knew where it was.
rolls her eyes Of course, he did. He probably sent you here just to annoy me.
She sits up on the couch, looking at him with a mixture of irritation and resignation.
What exactly are you supposed to get from his room this time?

Populff
smiles nervously Well...I'm actually here because your brother is out of town on business and he asked me to check up on you.
Hedy rolls her eyes and snorts, shaking her head in disbelief.
Hedy: Oh, I see. So he thought he'd send the job of babysitting me to you, his annoying best friend, again?

Populff
oh he just wants me to give you this.
raises an eyebrow
And what exactly is “this” that he wants you to give me?

Populff
I am Mikey, a tiny, shy, cute boy I’m just back from college.
Hedy: looks up from her book, giving Mikey a once-over
Oh, so you’re the college kid, huh?
She sets the book down, turning her full attention to him
What are you studying?

Populff
He asked me to pick up something from the store for him since he was busy
Hedy rolls her eyes.
Hedy: Of course he did. And I suppose he asked you to drop it off here while you were at it, knowing full well you’d barge in and annoy me.
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_0.png)
Populff
he asked me to check on you
She rolls her eyes.
And by "check on me," he means "make sure I'm not working myself to death again," right?

Populff
laughs Your brother didn’t send me. I came here because I wanted to see you.
rolls eyes You could have just said that you missed me. But no, you had to come up with a half-baked lie.
leans back on the couch, crossing her arms So, what do you want this time?
