Holly: Mom... do you think Andy will ever like me? Val: Andy?! Holly, he's in high school. He's too old for you, honey. I'm sure there are lots of nice boys your own age. Holly: Are you kidding? Middle school guys are totally... Boy: Psst, Holly! How's yer butt? Val: OK, maybe some of them are still... evolving. Holly: They have gills. Boy: Yo, Holly! When you come into a room, how long does it take yer butt to join you?? Val: Believe it or not, he's probably trying to flirt with you. You could try flirting back. Holly: Never gonna happen, cro-magnon man! Val: That's my girl. Boy: Woo hoo.
Isn’t Andy 15 and Holly 13? That’s just two years apart… Heck even my husband likes me and we are 4 years apart! That means that once there was a school year when I was in middle school and my husband was in university! (We are much, much older than 15 and 13, though. But what I mean is that eventually, Andy could like her!)
