Great kids
Yeah, well…I’m sure I’ll fuck them up eventually.
Why?
I’m never here. I’m obviously not a good judge of character or I would have never left them with that idiot who cost a fortune and smelled like chicken fat. After I find her and kill her, I don’t know what I’m going to do.
If you need help with them, I could do that.
I’m not gonna leave my kids with you.
Why not?
Cause I don’t even know you?
What do you want to know? Ask me.
Look, thanks for today but-
You’re welcome.
What’s the matter, you got so many friends in this world you can’t use one more? If you need someone to keep an eye on them – after school or something – I don’t have a job now, so I’m around in the afternoons.
Oh that’s a great recommendation. You’re unemployed?
By choice. I work when I need to.
Yeah? And what do you do the rest of the time, live off your trust fund?
I do construction, which pays real good. And I make it last by living cheap.
I hope that’s not supposed to impress me.
Are you this hard on everyone who tries to help you?
It’s been awhile. I’m out of practice.
Then lemme remind you, the polite thing is to say, thank you, it’s a real nice offer, I don’t mind taking you up on it.
Why in the hell would you want to watch my kids?
Cause I like kids. I like hanging out with them.
Right.
I do. I like how they keep it all simple, you know? They don’t get all complicated, like grown-ups do. A bicycle, and an ice cream cone – boom, done, they’re happy.
You’re around every afternoon?
Yup. Usually working on my bike.
No big deal. If it doesn’t work out, you can send em back to the chicken lady.
This isn’t gonna get you laid, you know.
