"Good to hear that. If you need help, just ask any of us" said Vardy.
"Okay, captain. I'll keep it in mind" replied Billy.
"So, how's thing with Lindsey?" asked Chilwell.
"Everything's great. We always talking to each other via FaceTime" replied Billy.
"Good to hear that. Just remember to be loyal. That's all matter" said Vardy.
"That's true. Having a long distance relationship is tough. Need to be loyal and trust your partner. That's all" said Chilwell.
"Yeah. I know that" replied Billy.

Avril: You will be. I believe in you.

Billy: Uggh, you're lucky that I love you.
Avril: I know. And I love you too. By the way, mom called me yesterday.
Billy: What does she wants?

Billy: Really? After 8 damn years, only now she asking how you're doing?
Avril: I know. But she do sounds regret her decision supporting dad that time. She said she miss me.
Billy: Really? And you believe it?
Avril: I don't know, Billy. It sounds legit after all. She even wants to meet me here in Portland.
