"Hello. Isabella from Parkinson's Bow And Tie Shop speaking. How may I help you?"
"Hey, Bella. How are you?"
"Oh hey, Zachary. I'm fine. How are you?"
"I'm amazing."
"Wow. Cocky much? You are not amazing. I am."
"Now who's arrogant?"
"Yeah yeah. So how was your date with Barbara?"
"I..actually.."
"Shush!"
"What?"
"Wait a minute, dude. Jazzy is telling me latest celebrity gossip."
"You seem to like celebrity gossip a lot. And who's Jazzy?"
"Yes I do. And Jazzy is my co-worker and a good friend."
"Bella! Guess what?"
"Oh I don't know. Brangelina is over? World stopped spinning around its axis? OH MY GOD. Aliens invaded our precious earth?"
"..."
"Don't give me that look. You told me to guess, so I did."
"Anyways, the latest celebrity gossip is that Zachary Anderson broke up with Barbara Jones."
"..."
"Shocking, right?"
"Uh, yeah."
"So that's how the date went. I broke up with Barbara."
"Oh. Sorry to hear that."
"Don't be. It's not like I loved her."
"Then why would you date her?"
"It was a PR stunt, you know, to boost her modelling career. She's just a good friend. Nothing more, nothing less."
"Oh."
"Yes. Oh."
"Anyways. Gotta go now. Duty calls. Have a good day."
"You too."
Beep. . .
"And I also broke up with her because I think I like someone else."
. . .
Edit: I wrote this chapter months before Brangelina was over. And now that I'm editing this chapter, I realized Isabella's prediction about Brangelina came true. Brangelina is over. Wow. Mind=blown+sad
