Heaven can wait

NINE YEAR OLD BOY
Hey! Dr. Michelle!
ME
Hey, what's up?

NINE YEAR OLD BOY
How old are you?

ME
Well, how old do you think I am?

NINE YEAR OLD BOY
Ummmm, I think you look maybe...um, nineteen?

ME
Hahaha, do you think that's old?

NINE YEAR OLD BOY
Well, a little. So, am I right? Are you nineteen??

ME
Actually, I'm 25.

NINE YEAR OLD BOY
[falling off his chair]
WHOA! You're twenty-five?! That's SUPER old! I was going to say you look like you're twenty! But that's OLD, and I didn't want to hurt your feelings, so I said you look nineteen! But you're TWENTY-FIVE?!!?!?!?!?

ME
Hey! Twenty-five isn't that old.

NINE YEAR OLD BOY
My mom has a friend who's twenty-five. And she's married! And she has 2 kids! Are you married????

ME
Haha, no, I'm not married. And guess what? I don't have any kids either.

NINE YEAR OLD BOY
Well, what are you waiting for?? Don't you want to get married?

ME
Haha, have you been talking to my mother?

NINE YEAR OLD BOY
What? Noooooooooooooooooooo, I don't even know her!! Why would I talk to her?? You're so weird!

ME

NINE YEAR OLD BOY
