My mind is a constant reminder that everyone is going to leave in the end. My dad, my grandpa, my grandma.

One day my mom will be gone.

Wren will be gone.

Henry will be gone.

At the end of the day, it’ll just be me.

HENRY

I was hungry and stopped by the diner and I must have had some bad karma because my favorite waitress wasn’t there.

Maisie

Is that so?

The food was phenomenal (as always) but I think it would’ve been better with a cherry on top. Don’t you think?

Maisie

Hmm… Cherry’s do make everything better.

You must have bad luck because I was there for the breakfast crowd and won’t be there tomorrow since I have the day off.

You know what’s crazy?

Maisie

???

I too have tomorrow off.

Maisie

That is crazy.

If only I had someone who needed to finish her Fuck It List and go on a date.

Wait!

Maisie Winslow… will you do me the honor of letting me take you out on a date tomorrow? A platonic date between two friends?

Maisie

I might have to check my calendar…

Praying that my bad karma has run out and you’re free tomorrow

Maisie

Would you look at that, my day is completely empty.

Not for long because now you have a hot (friendly) date.

I’ll pick you up at five. :)
