Dee: Markus, who follows you around all the time?
Emily: Yeah him. Although actually he’s stopped that, which is nice.
Dee: He what!? Why? What did you do to him!?
Emily: Hey! I didn’t do anything! I told him to piss off, same as always, except for once he listened. What’s wrong with that?
Dee: Augh. Nothing, I suppose. So what’s the actual news, if that’s not it?
Emily: Oh, just that it’s totally illegal for them to be dating. So it has to be kept secret.
Dee: What!?
Emily: Yeah! See, Chiyo’s on exchange from Japan, and the program she’s doing it through forbids her from having a boyfriend.
Dee: So they should stop!
Emily: No! No, it’s fine, they’re not stupid. But if anyone finds out about them, she’ll be sent home. They’re star-crossed lovers! It’s so cute!
Dee: But you said the whole school knows?
Emily: Oh, naturally.
Dee: And noone finds it strange that Markus has a girlfriend?
Emily: No! Why are you so surprised by that? Did you think he was gay or something?
Dee: No, no… I just… never mind. Good for him.
