How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[orangetoughguy]

You givin' him nice crap.

[When you already take the guy out for joyrides in the sports car. You try seducing Larry but you don't make a single pass at me. You know, that kind of stuff. Surely by now Saya can appreciate Freddy's candidness?]

How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[synanthrope]

[She can and she does]

Are you saying he should be giving me nice things?

How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[orangetoughguy]

Yeah? On a doctor's salary? Come on.

[At least that's how it works in his world.]

How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[synanthrope]

He can give me nice things, if he chooses to. He chooses not to, just like he chooses not to sleep with me.

[This is said matter-of-factly, not any other way. Oh Saya.]

How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[orangetoughguy]

Oh. [Oh] Okay. I'll drop it off.

[Weird....] You want me to give him a message or somethin'?

How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[synanthrope]

Tell him that if the size five doesn't fit his girlfriend properly, he should send them back and I'll change them for a better fit.

How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[orangetoughguy]

Wait wait wait.

[No see cause now he has to ask.] You're gettin' him his gifts for his girlfriend?

How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[synanthrope]

It's like getting a man a gift of lingerie.

How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[orangetoughguy]

So...you're gettin'im a present for'im cause he wants to see his girl in'em?

[Oh God now he has to peek but Freddy won't do it yet, not unless Saya clearly grants him permission...in the office anyway.]

How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[synanthrope]

[She nods, which is almost unusual for her, she's not that demonstrative]

I'm told she's quite young. I don't think she knows how to pick out shoes that a man like Robert would find attractive.

How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[orangetoughguy]

[Does this count as watercooler gossip??]

Whoa what? How young?

How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[synanthrope]

[Maybe?]

Significantly younger than me.

[Pause]

Young enough that I would consider her a girl.

How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[orangetoughguy]

[Well now this is a tough one because they say you never ask a lady her age but Saya is no typical lady and Freddy, well, Freddy is Freddy.]

How young are you?

[Better than how old right? Right.]

How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[synanthrope]

[She doesn't take offense anyway]

Twenty-six.

How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[orangetoughguy]

[Good thing they're practically the same age. Now Freddy's thinking significantly younger, hm. Time for a quip.]

You ain't givin'im these cause if he gave her nice wine or somethin' he'd get busted are you?

How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[synanthrope]

[There's a pause and almost a smile. It's not telling if it's a word game, right? Right? There are ways around secrets]

I'm just pleased she can buy her own cigarettes.

How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[orangetoughguy]

[It's okay Saya because the cigarettes throw in a wild card. Freddy doesn't take Chase for the type to date a smoker. It could be fact or simply a turn of phrase. Either way, too bad that makes him think she's in the sixteen year old range. Damn 90s.]

Ooooookay. Anyway I'll get these to him. When do you want'em dropped off again?

How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[synanthrope]

Soon, please. If you do it today, you can have the rest of the day off.

How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[orangetoughguy]

Hah, deal.

[And Freddy promises not to smoke...too close to the bag anyway. No need to get the smell on them.]

How would I know, why should I care, please don't bother tryin' to find her;

[synanthrope]

Thank you.

[And she means it. As much as she can.]
