"i named my aloe vera
plant 'stella' because
she looks like a pointed star,"
she said.

"nice!" her friend replied.
"my plants used
to have names but they're
all dead.

"we did bury them
in the backyard, though,"
she finished.

"so, instead of a pet cemetery,
you have a plant cemetery?"
she asked mischievously.

"yeah," her friend replied
with a giggle. "something like that...
we just prefer to call it
fertilizer."
