Lavinia
I can’t imagine. I think I’m too boring to even imagine it.
Roman
I’m adding teaching you how to ride a bike to my to-do list.
Lavinia
My mother will disown me.
Roman
Come on, Vin. Why lie to yourself? I know you had fun on our ride. All that power and freedom? I bet you think about it even now and wonder to yourself, what if.
Lavinia
Okay, I admit it. It was fun. Stop trying to seduce me to come to the dark side.
Roman
Seducing you is half the fun of being on the dark side.
AUGUST
Lavinia
Have you ever had a hankering for a fruit?
Roman
Do people still use the word hankering?
Lavinia
I’m sure they do.
Roman
To answer your question, yes, I frequently have hankering for fruit
Lavinia
Not fruit, Roman. A fruit. Like a specific fruit that you’ve never eaten before but are craving suddenly.
Roman
Is this really about fruit?
Lavinia
Of course. I woke up this morning and I really wanted a peach. I don’t think I’ve ever had a peach before.
Roman
You don’t like peaches?
Lavinia
