[Keith]
Uh, hey. Uh, the laundry is still in the wash.
But, but I thought, um, well, I'm wide awake, so so, I um. It's going to be a bit, and I thought I'm going to have some of this here wine.
But I didn't want to open it before, um, you got out of the shower because I noticed you didn't drink your tea and w-well, I totally get that, by the way.
I mean, you don't know me and this is a really weird situation.
It makes total sense, um but I thought that, um you know, you might want some of this, but if I opened it while you weren't here, that um, that um I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, sorry, I'm rambling. Jesus Christ.
Um. I thought you wouldn't want any if you didn't see me open it. So, I waited.
[Tess]
I'm good.
