Lost Me Gained Regret

I nodded, "Yeah, it's pretty exciting."

If my mom's got a thing for Raleigh and it could lead to something more, that'd be pretty cool.

Missing out on love would be the real tragedy.

Gregory ruffled my hair, "Got something I wanna talk to you about."

"Dailey, right?"

I stepped back from Gregory's embrace, folding my arms as my expression turned serious. "You're not trying to turn me against him, are you?" Gregory chuckled, "Of course not, I'm firmly on your side."

But then he shifted gears, adding, "But Dailey did ask me for help."

I asked, "And how did he ask you?"

Gregory replied, "Pleaded with me, verbally."

I gave him a look, "Nice try with the wordplay."

Gregory laughed, wrapping his arms around me again.

"You don't get it. For him to actually say 'please', it means he's genuinely asking for my help."

I poked Gregory's chest, "Instead of begging you, he should go make things right with Christine. Apologize sincerely, spill his guts."

"Christine's the forgiving type if he's honest with her."

It's not like they're archenemies or anything.
