Text

George Everybody’s being horrible about me. They say I hid in a ditch as soon as the enemy came in sight. You don’t believe it, do you?
Natalie Of course we don’t. Natasha Of course not.

[... …]

Natasha ‘To follow your heart wherever it leads you! - To let love be your guide to the greater good!’ Do you play the piano, George? George A little. Emma says if I practiced, Chopin and Liszt better watch out.
