"Hello."
"Hey."
"Feeling better?"
"Uh-huh."
"That's good. Do you want some ice cream?"
"No, I haven't eaten all of mine, and I obviously can't share with my family."
"Why?"
"I NEVER share ice cream! NEVER! NEVER! EVER! EVER!"
"I get it, princess. You don't like sharing your ice cream."

"Ha-ha, very funny. One more. Mom is calling about the loads of ice cream in the fridge, and she has no idea how it got there."
"If nothing lasts forever, will you be my nothing?"
"..."
"Um, did you like it? It is a little silent over there."
"Yeah."
"Yeah what?"
"Yeah, I'll be your nothing."
