Bernadetta & Felix A+

Bernadetta
Hey, Felix! Can I talk to you for a minute?

Felix
What is it? I'm listening.

Bernadetta
Look, over there! Isn't that a cute kitty?!

Felix
Oh, I agree. I don't dislike cats.

Bernadetta
Here, try this. It's candy, but I promise it isn't sweet.

Bernadetta
Hey, are you busy? I've got this great book, and...

Felix
What are you doing?

Bernadetta
Huh?

Felix
Why are you so concerned with me?

Felix
More importantly, didn't you used to be shy?

Bernadetta
Oh, I'm as shy as ever.

Felix
Then why are you following me around?

Bernadetta
That's, um... Well, you know how ghosts are only scary because you can't see or talk to them?

Felix
You're saying I'm a ghost.

Bernadetta
What?! No! It was, uh, just a metaphor!

Felix
Heh. There you are, foolish as ever.

Bernadetta
That's it! You're smiling again!

Felix
What?

Bernadetta
That's why I've been working so hard to talk to you. I wanted to see you smile again.

Felix
Heh. I'm disappointed. Such a trivial reason.

Felix
You're pestering me without a hint of fear, just to see me smile.

Felix
You've really grown up.

Bernadetta
Um... Yeah, I guess. Wait, why are you being nice?

Bernadetta
Did something terrible happen?!

Felix
...

Bernadetta
This is the part where you get angry at me, isn't it?

Felix
Uh... Come on. You were saying something about a book I should read?

Bernadetta
Really?! Well, um... It's, um...

Bernadetta
This one! If you wouldn't mind...
