Fondue

Nat: No one’s around or available Saturday night. Should we keep the sitter and just go out ourselves?

Blank stares at one another.

Nat: I mean, I guess we should, right? We should be doing this kind of thing. For our relationship. It’s important.

Zach: Yeah.

Nat: You know what would make me really happy?

Zach: I’m not getting fondue.

Nat: Who said anything about fondue? I want to see a movie.

Zach: I’d rather eat fondue.

Nat: C’mon!

Zach: There’s not even anything good out.

Nat: Yes, there is. That Zach Braff movie. How good was Garden State?

Silence.

Nat: You didn’t see Garden State?

Zach: Take Zach Braff for fondue.

Nat: No one wants fondue! It’s 85 degrees in August! What’s wrong with you?!

Zach: So, cancel the sitter?

Nat: Already texting her.
