Page 3 of Love Arranged

Your sunny disposition is starting to wear on me a bit.

Laurence

Your jokes are improving. I nearly laughed.

Ana

Is there hope for me yet?

Laurence

I hate to break it to you, but I have about as much hope as I do faith.

Ana

You know what I learned from fostering animals?

Ana

Hurt dogs don’t holler. They bite.

Ana

I’m having the worst day ever.

Laurence

And you thought I’m the best person to vent to about it?

Ana

Still deciding.

Laurence

What about your sister?

Ana

She’s out of town.

Laurence

Mom?

Ana

She’d get anxious and try to make me believe everything is going to be okay.

Laurence

Dad?

Ana

He’s not around anymore…

Laurence
