Mai

Do you believe in love at first sight?

Theo

Absolutely

Mai

Wait. Really?

Theo

Have you seen my niece and nephew??? First time I saw them I knew I would do anything for them. ANYTHING! They’re kidnapped and sold into the human trafficking trade while on a European vacation? You better believe I’m calling Liam Neeson for pointers

Mai

But what about romantic love? Do you ever think people look at each other and just… know?

Theo

Depends

Mai

On?

Theo

Are they holding a triple layer buttercream peanut butter chocolate cake?

Mai

Be serious!

Theo

No. Not unless they’re fated to be together or some weird past life soul mates (*cough* Linc and Annie *cough*). Those are the lucky ones. The rest of us poor souls have to make do with sampling the buffet until we find our match

Mai

Theodore! Be still my heart! I never took you for a romantic!

Theo

I’m like a good meringue—crispy on the outside, marshmallow on the inside

Mai

And far too pretentious for your own good

Theo

I’ve been thinking about your question from last week

Mai
