Nell: So you’ve come back.

Me: Yes, I missed you.

Nell: And the white hair?

Me: What white hair?

Nell: On your clothes.

Me: Oh. That was Carlos.

Nell: And Carlos is?

Me: He’s Alice’s cat.

Nell: A cat.

Me: Yes.

Nell: You cuddled a cat?

Me: He’s lovely but I still missed you.

Nell: A cat.

Me: Sorry.
