"Does Auntie not like me?" Hayley Cole asked pitifully.
"Of course I like you, it's just... this is all too rushed..." Charlotte Reed shook her head, speaking with some disapproval.
"Auntie, you're so out of touch." Hayley Cole pouted, "There are people who get married within three days of meeting."
"Married in three days? That's... possible?" Charlotte Reed asked in astonishment.
"Of course it's possible." Hayley Cole said with a smile, "I've known James for so long, it's no problem."
"But," Hayley Cole said with some worry, "will James marry me?"
"Well..." Charlotte Reed seemed to have just thought of this problem, and smiled wryly, "I really haven't figured that out yet."
"Oh dear, Auntie, you say all these lively things but in the end, can't you do anything?" Hayley Cole was so angry she almost cried.
"I... I was just speaking off the cuff, who would have thought of so much?" Charlotte Reed said awkwardly.
