At the Bar

“So, tell me, if you’re not interested, why are you still in touch?”

“Because”.

“Oi! Don’t give me that. What do you mean “because”?”

“Just that. Anyway, why shouldn’t I?”

“Because!”

“Hey, that’s my line.”

“No, really. Tell me.”

“Tell you what?”

“Why are you still seeing her?”

“Look, why shouldn’t I? I’m not attached, she’s not attached..”

“Don’t you think you might just be leading her on? Like.. she might think there is hope after all?”

“Hey, I’ve made things clear. If she has those thoughts, that’s not my fault, or problem! Besides, for the time being, whenever I need a date or escort to any do, or should I need somebody to go to the movies with, since I hate going alone…”

“You’re a jackass, big time, you know that!”

“Call me whatever, man! I’m still the one for many!”

“Ah shush! Drink up before I pour the drink all over your face!”

“Do that and you’re buying the next! Chill, man. It’s nothing. You think too much. You’re always that “Mr Nice Guy”. Haven’t you learned that gets you nowhere?”

“yeah… I have to say you’re right. But I can hope, that one day..”

“And that, my friend, is when we all say.. “dream on!”. Drink up. You’re so pathetic but you’re my best mate, so I’ll buy another round. Come on. Hey look, 3 o’clock.. babes on the move! Yeah baby! Out of my way, people!”

“Well, you coming or what?”

Another Phone Call

"Hey baby. How are you?"

"I'm fine. Just fine.."

"Merry Christmas!"

"Girl? You there?"

"Don’t call me that."

"Why? What’s wrong?"

"Look, what is it? Why are you calling?"

"It’s the holiday season, honey. And I was thinking of you. I’ve missed you. You said you’d meet me but when I called the last few times before you kept putting things off. "

"I didn’t have the time then."

"Well, what about now? Can we meet? "

"Don’t. Please don’t call me anymore."

"But I need to see you. I’ve missed you".

"I.. Baby? Hello? .. "

What's Fair?

"You made that choice".
- I had to. I had to do what was right at the time.

"And it’s no longer right now?"
- No. It’s not like that.

"Then what? It was so right that you now want to make it wrong?"
- No. You know that’s not the case.

"Hah. So what is it? You found that despite whatever you’ve done, ooh.. that I’m still the one? And so you’re back?"
- Yes. Well, yes. But don’t make it sound so.. so..

"So what? Stupid of you? Well. It’s true isn’t it? And guess what? I don’t wish to be straddled with your stupidity".

- That’s not fair.

"What’s fair? You leaving me stranded and going ahead trying all other avenues and when all don’t work, you heading back to me? And expecting me to simply, let you in? That's fair?"

Another Blind Date

"So, what's he like?"

"He's okay."

"Hey. Wait up. What do you mean, he's okay? C'mon! Spill!"

"That's just it, I'm afraid."

"You're priceless".

"What do you mean?"

"You didn't even try, did you? What did you do? The usual "oh ok" to everything the guy says? Really! And he's one of the better ones!"

"Told you I'm not big on blind dates. You insisted. Me? I had to go along to shut you up, else I wouldn't have heard the last of it."

"You're a bitch, that's what you are!"

"haha, that I am. Come on, coffee's on me,and a dig into a rich, moist chocolate cake is what we need. Calories here we come".

"and quit with the pout already! I'll humour you by going on that next date once you've set it up. Now come along, I'm dying for that sugar buzz."
