Oona: I think we need to talk.
Kenzo: Uh-oh, I don’t think I like that tone…
Oona: When is the last time you talked to Kaida?
Kenzo: Um… it was Valentine’s Day. She sent me one,
and I sent her one. **thinking aloud** Hey, I guess it has been a while, hasn’t
it?
Oona: Just as I suspected – you are taking her for
granted! A girl SO doesn’t like being taken for granted.
Kenzo: **shrug** I don’t take her for granted. At
least I didn’t think I did. I’m not a smotherer, is all. Besides, since I got back from Christmas vacation,
there’s school and practice and soccer –
Oona: That’s no excuse. *sigh* I think I’m going
to have to show you, since you haven’t been paying attention. Persephone, can
we use your laptop for a minute?
Persephone:
Certainly. I believe I know what you’re alluding to -- **clickclickclick**
Here you are –
Oona: Do you know who this is with Kaida?
Kenzo: Nope. Not a clue. Who is he?
Oona: He’s one of Asher’s brothers. Tall and good-looking. Everyone thinks they’re an item.
Persephone: It
is quite the buzz of the board. *I* wouldn’t turn up my nose at his attentions,
should I be so fortunate to be on the receiving end of them.
Kenzo: People gossip, and say stuff. So he’s tall.
Hey, everyone’s taller than me – I’m
used to it by now.
Oona: Kenzo, Kaida’s a cute girl, You’re very
lucky to have her. I don’t know how else to motivate you, except to remind you
that she’s known for not sticking to anything for very long, and you could wind
up as one of those things if you don’t wake up and do something about it. It’s
a danger in relationships, whether the person is right next door, or across the
country. I know you think I’m nosy, but – I just don’t want to see you sad if
it can be prevented. Forewarned is forearmed.
Kenzo: Yes, M’AM! **clicks heels and salutes*
Persephone: **snerks** -- oh, pardon me. I thought that was humorous.
Oona: **glares** You are
SO not helping here. Well, I won’t waste any more breath for now. But you think
about it, mister. **exits**
**short silence**
Kenzo: So… do you think I’m ignoring this at my
peril?
Persephone:
Considering that I lack a boyfriend, would you consider my advice valid?
Kenzo: Well… you ARE a girl. That’s some
qualification.
Persephone: My
gratitude knows no bounds. **bats eyelashes in sarcasm** Seriously, though, your cousin is
correct. You, my good man, are guilty of near-terminal neglect. Even *I*
wouldn’t forgive that, if you were my boyfriend. Communication is paramount.
Kenzo: Ah… maybe I should write… ?
Persephone:
Here – use this. **puts computer in his lap**
Kenzo: No time like the present.
Persephone: By
George, I think you’ve got it!

Hey, Kaida… >>>

I’m such a louse. My
cousin Oona had to give me a wake-up call, and I’m
feeling pretty stupid about now.
There’s no excuse for
my not calling or writing you lately. How can I make it up to you?
You think if I found
a way to grow a few feet in the next 20 minutes, it might help?
If it’d make you
smile again, I’d sure try to do it…
Yours,
Kenzo
Happily, Kenzo
need not worry that Kaida will be stolen away by the
long tall Eli…
