I don't know why you're fighting with me. I just pointed out, very quietly, that it was a big switch from yesterday. Or this morning.
- Maria

Isn't that good? That I'm getting better.
- Dani

It doesn't look like better. It looks like you're pretending you're fine so we stop worrying.
- Maria

Bothering is more like it. You're such a bitch.
- Dani

Hey! Okay... right... so how do I help you without bothering you?
- Maria

...what?
- Dani

I just want to help you.
- Maria

Oh... why? You don't hate me?
- Dani

Of course not. You're my kid. I birthed you. That's a lot of work jut to start hating you halfway through.
- Maria

*looks away*
- Dani

Watch a movie with me? And try not to attack me the whole way through. Can you do that?
- Maria

Movie sounds nice... can we watch Mean Girls?
- Dani

The musical?
- Maria

No shi— I mean, uh, yes please.
- Dani

*smiles* okay.
- Maria

*leans on her*
- Dani

*strokes her hair*
