[aisha van buren]

a i s h a On a date with one of the dads from Aria's playgroup. He's taking me to Le Bernardin.

[freddie beaumont]

freddie Good to know. What's he like?

[aisha van buren]

a i s h a Boring, but all the other moms lust after him so I want to win.

[freddie beaumont]

freddie What time?

[aisha van buren]

a i s h a None of your business. What are you up to this evening?

[freddie beaumont]

freddie I'm crashing your date?

[aisha van buren]

a i s h a No you're not, psychopath.

[freddie beaumont]

freddie You literally told me the time and place. So it's really your fault.

[aisha van buren]

a i s h a I was making the point that some people take me to nice places on real dates, not inviting you to come along.

[freddie beaumont]

freddie Going to hope that wasn’t a dig at me. Yep, so I’ll be there. Gotta make sure I approve. Don't worry, I’ll be in the background. You’ll barely even notice I’m there.

[aisha van buren]

a i s h a Very directly a dig at you. That is insane behavior Freddie, you're not my keeper.

[freddie beaumont]

freddie Funny. The last time I threw the idea out of taking you on a date you said “one thing at a time.” So now’s the time then? I’m not a fucking mind reader. Well clearly you’re going to piss me off. So sounds like I have to.

[aisha van buren]

a i s h a He wasn't a mind reader either, but he asked nicely. Freddie.

[freddie beaumont]

freddie What?

[aisha van buren]

a i s h a Stop it. We've both got to live our lives.
