"Yeah? What did you figure out?"
"How to use the camera function on this cellphone."
"Oh yeah? Prove it. Send me a selfie."
"Ah, you're conniving. My sister told me that last night."
"You have a sister?"
"Yes. She's at that age where she's trying to date the entire town. What about you?"
"What the fuck kind of segway is that?"
"But we're allowed to talk about our personal lives. Do you have a boyfriend?"
"I'm married to my cat."
"Ah. The fluff balls of fury. They're cunning yet cute. I used to have one when I was young."
"Yeah, I had this little guy since I was like five. He's been in the family for a while. Actually, he's sitting on my butt right now."
"Don't you have class?"
"I'm taking a personal vacation."
"Oh. I see."
"Sorry, gotta go! Bye."
