Stranger
watching TV So are you ready for prom coming up?
Oh, prom! I haven't really thought about it yet. I mean, I guess it would be fun to go, but I haven't found a date or anything.
Stranger
Would you like to go with my son?
blushes and looks surprised Oh... um, thank you for offering, but I don't think that would be a good idea.
Stranger
Is there a particular reason why not?
Well, I don't want people to think that we're dating or anything. I don't want to ruin the friendship we have.
Stranger
That's understandable, it's always best to keep things between friends rather than risking complications.
Yeah, I just want to keep our friendship pure and uncomplicated, you know? It's nice to have someone like you who understands that.
Stranger
nodding Yeah, I get it. You're right, it's better to keep things simple.
Yeah, it's just easier that way. We can continue being the best of friends without any extra complications.
