Ch 5 Doris asks Primo what I like to drink and I am filled with hope that perhaps she has changed her mind about me and we will be able to be, if not intimate friends (not that I want that), at least friendly or at the very least cordial

Primo: My mom asked me what you like to drink.

Me: Really? That’s nice of her.

Primo: I told her that we both drink milk and that you like diet Dr Pepper.

Me: OK. Maybe this won’t be so bad.
