“You don’t have to do this Billy. You didn’t sign up for this.”
“Neither did you, Madame President.”
******
“You told her that, in those words?”
“Exactly like that.”
“And how did she respond?”
“She laughed at me.”
“Mmm.”
“I don’t understand what happened. I looked at her and all I could think to say was ‘I like your hair.’ And she laughed. In much the same was as yourself Madame President. I don’t understand women.”
“No Billy, I don’t think you do.”
“Thank you Ma’am.”
“Oh Billy, It’s never too late to learn. You just need to find yourself a teacher.”
“Those are in short supply these days, Ma’am.”
“Mmm. I think I know where to find one.”
******
“I’m sorry, Ma’am.”
“I know Billy.”
“I didn’t think about people overhearing.”
“I know Billy.”
“I should have made sure the channel was secure first.”
“Billy, it’s okay.”
“But you collapsed and -”
“And you were worried, it’s okay Billy, I know.”
“Your hands are cold Madame President. Let me get you another blanket.”
“No, Billy, I’m fine.”
“No you’re not, Ma’am.”
“No Billy. No I’m not.”
