R2-D2 glanced at BB8, who was talking to Poe. C-3PO was by R2's side. "You know you have to tell him at some point," C-3PO told his best friend.
Yes. I know. I'm thinking maybe after their conversation.
"Do you think he'll be ready?"
R2-D2 pauses and thinks for a moment. Yeah, I'd say so.
As if on cue, Poe bad BB8 good-bye and they parted. R2-D2 strolled over to BB8.
Hey, BB.
Oh! Hey, R2!
Look, there has been something I have been meaning to tell you.
Really? The tone of R2's voice made BB8 nervous.
It's just, I will never forget when I first laid eyes on you. You were so small and have grown into a great BB unit. It's why you don't remember.
Remember what?
The fact is... R2-D2 hesitated.
...Yes? BB8 asked, hopefully.
It all came rushing out. IfelllinlovewithabasketballandwegotseperatedafterawhilebutthenthebasketballsomehowhadyouandthatMAKESMEYOURFATHER!
Silence.
You're my dad? BB8 asked.
Yes...
Wow. Honestly, I'm not surprised. We DO look a little similar ... Dad.
I suppose we do ... son.
C-3PO smiled inwardly. It all worked out after all...
