Ricky: that's fine. I was just trying to figure out if it was on purpose or your personality
Nini: Why would I do that on purpose *laughs*

Ricky: *why does she keep touching me?* *I smile awkwardly and look down*
Nini: *He makes things so difficult* I start to hum the song Betty*
Ricky: what song is that?
Nini: You don't know? It's Betty by Taylor Swift. I can't believe I'm in the presence of a non swiftie *laughs*
Ricky: I don't think I've heard that song before. I mean Taylor Swift is great but is this a newer song or something?
Nini: The album came out about a month ago
Ricky: oh uh, cool
Nini: *I don't know what to do about this boy, he doesn't respond to anything and is just so.... Ugh I don't know what he is*

Ricky: *I walk back up to the shop*
Ashlyn: Hey Rick, how's Nini doing?
Ricky: something weird happened today. She held my hand. I didn't even notice and when I did and I asked her why she said she didn't notice.
Ashlyn: Hmm, interesting *laughs*
Ricky: what?
Ashlyn: Nothing
Ricky: Ash... Red what's wrong with her?
Red: I couldn't tell you
Ricky: I'm gonna head to the back and change
Ashlyn: Sounds good
Ricky: *I walk out*
Ashlyn: *to Red* he's so clueless *laughs*
Red: I noticed hun *laughs*
Ashlyn: Nini knows he has a girlfriend though
Red: I don't think that's gonna stop her
Ashlyn: yeah she seems a bit ambitious *laughs*
Red: Maybe things will work out for them
Ashlyn: but I like Alice!
Red: But do you notice how off she's been?
Ashlyn: Alice? I don't know I haven't seen her that much lately. She's been gone a lot for shoots and stuff, but she seems fine with Ricky. Why?
Red: I don't know about you, but to me she seems a little distant
Ashlyn: mmm I'll have to look for it now. I hope she's not wanting to leave him or something. Ricky is so happy
Red: I know, poor Ricky
Ricky: *walks back in* you guys good?
Red: All good Richard
Ricky: *I squint my eyes a little and give Red a look* don't call me Richard *laughs*
Red: Okay, Richard Micheal Bowen *laughs*
Ricky: I'm gonna go give my lesson and you two are gonna cut out whatever you got goin on *laughs*
Red: oKaY *laughs* *I walk out*
Ashlyn: What do you think we should do about it?
Red: nothing right now. I guess Thursday we'll see Alice and we can just see what's goin on
Ashlyn: I just hope everything works out okay
Red: as long as my boys happy
