...You know, I am very tempted to actually poll everyone and see what they think about this.

[young_oldman]

Hmph. Do as you please.

[Grumble grumble.]

Anyway, going back to the initial topic of this conversation. You're doing fine with Miss Elize. So long as you prioritize her well-being and upbringing, you're on the right track.

[He is tempted. VERY TEMPTED. He might actually do it when his own love life isn't crazy.

Anyway, he's fine with the change of topic, so he rolls with it. Still amused, though.]

Yeah, I'm going to look into the school system here. See if she can't get some lessons or something. [And now there's a light grin.] But thanks for hearing me out, Lu Meng. It's appreciated.

[young_oldman]

School sounds like a good idea. Let me know how it works out for you and her.

[opportunitycosts]

Will do.

[Then there's a small pause, as if he's going to say something else. But in the end he dismisses it.]

Anyway, I've taken up enough of your time. We should hang out sometime when you're free.

[young_oldman]

I'm not doing anything else for the rest of the evening. You're welcome to drop by my house, if there's anything else you'd like to discuss.

[Don't think he didn't notice that weird pause.]

[opportunitycosts]

[Weird pause? What weird pause? There was no such thing.]

I have a few things to do so I'll have to pass for now.
