The conversation sounds funny as hell.

“That’s not the point, Clayton.” Oh, it all makes sense now. “If she said no, let it go.” She’s obviously losing patience, but she looks up and smiles at me. “We’re done, Clayton.”

“Lemonade too.”

“Who the fuck is this?”

“Let’s start with who the fuck is this, smart ass?”

“Just put her on the phone.”
