Feel blue
Spot
Keep someone in the dark
As white as a sheet
Have a green thumb
Story
Barbara: Chloe! My little sister! Oh.. I’ve missed you so much! I haven’t seen you in forever. I’ve just been so busy with work. I’m so happy to be back at home for a couple of days. So, how are you?
Chloe: Actually, I feel blue…
Barbara: Why? What’s wrong?
Chloe: Remember Rosie? She died…
Barbara: What?! No… it can’t be… I just saw her the other day… She was fine! What happened?
Chloe: Not really… She was sick, she’d been sick for a long time. We were already worried but then, the other day, we noticed she was covered in dark spots and we knew it was too late.
Barbara: When? When did this all happen? Why didn’t you tell me? You’ve kept me in the dark this whole time?! And mom and dad, too! They didn’t say anything!
Chloe: I’m sorry, okay? I didn’t think she mattered that much to you! Calm down, please. You’re as white as a sheet. Seriously, take a seat and relax… I’m sad, too, but it’s not that big of a deal!
Barbara: Are you kidding me? You know how much I loved Aunt Rosie!
Chloe: What?! No, I’m not talking about Aunt Rosie… I’m talking about our houseplant Rosie… You know we don’t exactly have a green thumb but we really thought this one would survive.
Barbara: Oh my gosh! How about specifying which Rosie you were talking about?!
