“What is this thing?”
“It’s…a pear.
At least I think it is.”
“It’s brown, not green! Pears are green!
…Right?”
“Err…Yeah.”
“So why is it brown!?”
“I dunno, maybe its undergrown.”
“Ha-ha. It’s all skinny too.”
“Don’t make fun of the pear!”
“Sorry.”
“I was making a joke.”
“Well then.”
“Anyways,
this reminds me of one of those like…”
“Decorative food things that you can’t eat?”
“Yeah! Like the ones at your house!”
“Those aren’t fake.”
“Then…why are they brown?”
“…Their rotting.”
“Oh.”
“My mom says it gives the house a traditional look.”
“What?”
“I dunno either.”
“We’re getting off-topic. Anyways…”
“Hey, where’d the pear go?”
“…Oh.”
“….Oh.”
“Sorry I ate it haha…
While you were talking, I got bored.
So….”
“You….ate it.”
“Yup.”
“How did it taste like?
Was it like a potato?
Potatoes are brown you know.”
“I know what color potatoes are.
It tastes like…a shriveled…
Un-juicy, fake pear thing that….
Is surprisingly good.”
“Wow.”
“Yeah.”
“So…bye,”
“Bye.”
