    She:Bye,have a great day!Learn well!

    He:Shkoiach,I’m locking it,don’t worry.Oh,should I bring anything special home from thr grocery?

    She:As a matter of fact…do you mind getting another milk?

    He:No problem,kay bye.

    Funny but too real life (yes I can actually see something like that happening to people first married) but if you were to continue and go on to further years maybe …

    Eclipse- it could be funny if worked on some more. IMO, as soon as it’s exaggerated, it starts to become corny.

    And BTW, it depends A LOT on how well it’s acted out.

    Some lines were really cute!
