Ella:You been in there for so long. Don't you know too much of everything if bad and you're a girl. You'd be getting married soon.

Xty:Eww Ella. Don't talk about marriage with me. I'm not getting married. I wanna be fun, cr*zy, rich, bad b*tch. {posed a sexy style}

Ella: "..." {stared at her blankly} You know you're already cr*zy. But do you have to be more cr*zy. I bet if you were my daughter I'd have locked you up in a psychiatric hospital.

Xty:{Hugs Ella and faked a crying face} Boo-hoo Ella hates me. Ella wants me locked up with bunch of psychos.

Ella:Ehm Xty. You're squeezing air out of me {struggled to break free from Xty's tight hug}

Xty:Boo-hoo-hoo Ella still hates me.

Ella:Fine...fine. I take my word back. I can't lock you up in a psychiatric hospital.

Xty:{released Ella} Better. That's more like it.

Ella: And lest I forget your mother calls for you.

Xty:Oh? Alright I'd go now. {walked down the stairs}

Ella:Okay.
