“My food’s waiting back there, so see you in a bit.” Oliver takes a deep breath like he’s going back to a warzone.
“Thanks for everything, man. I really appreciate it!” You try to cheer him up by being a little more enthusiastic for the help received than usual.
Oliver parts away with a peace sign, leaving the Comfy Castle behind...
Now it’s time to farm these tomatoes out of the ground. You know tomatoes don’t grow directly from the ground, they’re akin to fruits… or are they fruits? You’re level 4 Knowledge, you should know this stuff, but oh well, it’s not like you have a phone to look this up… No, you’re in the past, decisively teasing these two cute girls for your and their amusement. You simultaneously pick them by the waist and pull them out!
“Ease there, girls! Don’t get sand on the food!” You say as they fly out of the ground!
“PHIL!” Grace is very ashamed! “What was that?! Why did you move away?!”
“<span class="mu-i">Uhmmm….!</span>” Mirjam wants to go back to her hole, but she’s petrified from the embarrassment.
“I saw Oliver and went forward, it’s not my fault you two didn’t look where you were going.” You come up with an easy excuse.
“I couldn’t bear to know I’ve been <span class="mu-i">rrrrejected</span>…” Mirjam admits her heart was compromised.
“You took me too seriously! I was teasing Phil back! I was expecting him to stay put like the good guy he is, then we’d smooch him on those puffy cheeks he has.” Grace admits it was all part of her scheme that backfired. You don’t have puffy cheeks, they’re sparkling for some reason though. “Phil! We deserve a proper apology.” The airhead waves her arms with intent.
“Well, lunch is here!” You show them the tray with the burgers and the soda cans.
“Those burgers look really yummy, but they aren’t enough, right, Mirjam?” Grace demands something specifically from you!
“Mhm! Meals aren’t enough this time!” Mirjam agrees despite not being able to look at each other after their kiss.
…But their stomachs betray them by roaring loudly! They start eating their burgers without an ounce of shame.
“So good!” Grace loves the meat!
“<span class="mu-i">Incrrredible!</span>” Mirjam loves it with her entire heart!
“Phil, think about how to make it up to us for that.” Grace demands retribution.
This chain of apologies from one side to another is going to strange places.
<span class="mu-s">What do you do?</span>
>Offer to actually kiss them to apologize! On the lips!
>Reject the notion that you need to apologize completely. They were the ones who goofed themselves! You deserve actual compensation!
>Offer your burger for peace! If they accept, tease them for only thinking about food.
>Write In.
