Rosie: Shit. I shouldn’t have said that. Please delete that text.

Daniel: No.

Rosie: What do you mean no?

Daniel: I’ll delete it if you say yes to my next question.

Rosie: No, I won’t go out with you.

Daniel: That wasn’t my question.

Rosie: We’re not sleeping together.

Daniel: Again, wasn’t going to ask that. Bet you feel awkward now.

Rosie: I do.

Daniel: Good. How about if I ask those questions now?

Rosie: You can’t help yourself, can you?

Why am I smiling at my phone? This man is annoying.

Daniel: I have a better idea and if you say yes, I promise to never hit on you again.

Rosie: YES!!!!!!!!!!

Daniel: Harsh.

Rosie: I’m sure your ego is big enough to deal with that.

Daniel: It’s not the only big thing.

Rosie: I walked right into that.

Daniel: Yeah, you did.

Rosie: What was the question?

Daniel: Fine. I have a cottage in Kent that I need furniture for. I bought it renovated but it’s empty and I haven’t had time to fit it out, except for art on the walls.

Rosie: That wasn’t at all what I thought you were going to ask.

Daniel: Ivy is busy planning her wedding, and after seeing your work, I think you’d be the right person for the job.

Rosie: Wow. Thanks, I really appreciate that.

Rosie: You really mean it? This isn’t a joke.

Daniel: I don’t joke about business. I promise I won’t cross the line with you. It may not look like it, but I try not to mix business and pleasure.

Daniel: Can we start over, again, again?

Rosie: Like we did at lunch?

Daniel: Yes.

Rosie: Fine.
