Do you want fries with that?

[Aldon Huang]

So he'll be okay, right?!

[Shimizu Susumu]

I'm not sure but I am doing my best.

[Aldon Huang]

What kind of curse was it? Was it... really bad? He's been looking kinda... half-dead lately.

[Shimizu Susumu]

Didn't he tell you?

[Aldon Huang]

Nnnnoo... I'm not even supposed to know. Eheheh... I kinda found out from his cousin. They tell each other everything.

[Shimizu Susumu]

Who are you to Alva, if I may ask?

[Aldon Huang]

I'm uhh... I'm dating his cousin. The one he's super close to? But I'm Alva's friend too! And... I'm Alva's boyfriend's best friend. Sooo... I'm gonna have to ask you politely to not hit on Alva. Ever. But I can set you up with someone if you're open to dating!

[Shimizu Susumu]

That's... okay. I don't need the help. But thanks anyway.

[Aldon Huang]

Oh wait! I saw you with Alva the other day! ...yeah you don't need help.

[Shimizu Susumu]

Oh? Did you? I don't recall meeting you.

[Aldon Huang]

Oh I just. Was passing by. Ahahaha... You probably didn't even see me. Ahahaha... *cough* So uh. Did Alva get there yet? If he doesn't show, I can get the antidote from you and give it to him.

[Shimizu Susumu]

Actually, I think I hear him now. :)

[Aldon Huang]

Ooh, okay! DON'T TELL HIM ABOUT ME! HE'LL KILL ME!

[Shimizu Susumu]

...All right.
