Hey, can we talk?
Jake
Sure, what's up?
Emma
I think we need a break.
Jake
Oh, really? Is this about the dishes again?
Emma
No, Jake, I'm serious.
Jake
Ok, if you say so.
Emma
Do you even care?

Jake
I mean, I thought you were joking.
Emma
I'm not. I've been thinking about it for a while.
Jake
Okay... if that's what you want.
Emma
So that's it? No fight?
Jake
Did you want a fight? I can do that too.
Emma
Wow, you're unbelievable.
Jake
Emma, I just thought we were good. You never said anything.
Emma
Maybe that's the problem. You never noticed.
Jake
How could I notice if you don't speak up?
Emma
I shouldn't have to spell everything out.
Jake
Communication is key, right?

Emma
You're impossible.
Jake
And you're always mysterious. It's like a riddle.
Emma
Making jokes, as usual.
Jake
You know I use humor to deal with things.
Emma
This time it's not funny.
Jake
I know. I'm sorry.
Emma
Sorry isn't enough.
Jake
What do you want then?
Emma
I want you to take me seriously.
Jake
Alright. Let's really talk about this.

Emma
You took long enough.
Jake
Better late than never, right?
Emma
Jake, I was joking about the break.
Jake
What? Are you serious?
Emma
Yes. Now who's the one misunderstanding?
Jake
Ha! Guess we're even now.
Emma
Maybe we both need to work on communication.
Jake
Agreed. Let's not do this again.
Emma
Deal.
