Colin jumped back as the pudgy balding man screamed.
“Mr. Krunstel!!! Look, I can explain what happened with the air conditioner, I-“ Colin panicked.
“I’m helping my niece find a friend she met online... wait, what happened to the air conditioner?!” Krunstel demanded.
“Uncle Todd, calm down.” A twenty-something brunette said as she appeared from behind.
“Lizzy?” Jamie smiles.
“Jamie!” The brunette beamed.
The pair squealed and danced around for a few seconds.
“Oh em gee, I’ve been waiting for you for, like, ever!” Jamie smiles with a hug.
“Yeah, I’ve been waiting on you too, hey the tilt-o-hurl doesn’t have a line, let’s go!” Lizzy said as she ran off with her internet friend.
“Byyyyyyye guuuuuuys see you laaaaaaater!” Jamie yelled as she ran for the ride, “Oh come on, where’d the line come from?!”
“So my niece’s new friend is an acquaintance of yours?” Mr. Krunstel asked.
“Yeah.... something like that....” Colin said.
“Well you’d better stay away from Lizzy!” The landlord spat.
“I was just gonna go around here with my girlfriend...” Colin said as he stopped himself from adding an s at the end.
“You? A girlfriend? Really?” Krunstel said in disbelief.
“Yes!” Colin said.
“Okay, which one of these ladies is dumb enough to date you?” The landlord asked.
