NOT SO BERRY

an hour later…

dexter: can i tell you something before you go?

carina: what is it?

dexter: i just – i know you didn’t want me to bring it up again but i want you to know that i really like you. like, like like you! you could do so much better than that idiot. 

carina: i’m sorry dexter, i don’t like you like that. i have to go… i’ll see you at school on monday.

dexter: oh.

NOT SO BERRY

carina: you don’t know him like i do! he’s nice and i think i love him! can we talk about something else?

dexter: ugh, fine. i’m just looking out for you.

carina: yeah, i know but i can take care of myself. i know i’m just a kid but i’m not dumb. 

dexter: you’re the smartest girl in the whole world, that’s for sure.

NOT SO BERRY

carina: hey, i hope you’re not mad at me for today.

dexter: why would i be mad? you didn’t do anything.

carina: i just – i feel bad for not doing anything more to help. what dustin did was wrong and i should have tried harder to make him stop.

dexter: don’t worry about it, carina! i could never be mad at you. you’re my best friend!
