The Talk

“ You know what’s harder than a broken heart ?
Being an awkward stranger. “


Me :
The next time you need help, please don’t call me.

You :
Alright, I’ll just call Alpha and ask for the Megazord then.

Me :
You’re an idiot.

You :
And you’re bruce wayne.

Me :
?

You :
Ohh, I thought we were playing the impossible.

Me :
( scoff – smack – smile )

~

Me :
If I were a batman, than you would be..
 ( interrupted )

You :
( finishing sentence )
Joseph Gordon Levitt

Me :
Seriously ?

You :
( nod excitedly )

Me :
Well, I was gonna say Martin Freeman, but..
Meh ~ you’ve made your choice.

You :
Speaking of Joseph Gordon Levitt…
 ( waiting )

Me :
What ? you want to bring the 500 Days of Summer thing again ?
I stand on my side, it’s Zooey’s fault.
She’s the crazy one.
Even though she’s all pretty with her smokey-big-buggy-eyes all sparkling under her-God-forbid-it’s open-bangs and her love shape birthmark fancying her pearl white skin covered in
Her lovely sense of edgy-vintage fashion style,
Still. She’s the crazy one.

You :
Yeah, but if Joe didn’t pursue on labeling the relationship,
Things may still go well.
I mean, as Zooey said,
“ who cares ? I’m happy, are you happy ? “

Me :
And then she got married.

You :
She thinks she has found the one.

~

You :
I just don’t understand..
Why people rush into labeling things.
Dating.. and then married.
I mean,
I know there have been successful stories.
But what I’ve seen most, is just things gonna get confusing,
And finally become miserable.

~

Me :
Well, at this point, I think you’re right Robin.

You :
Thanks Barney.

Me :
Wait, What !?
Why am I suddenly the fat purple Godzilla ?

You :
?

Me :
Ohh !! you mean Barney – Barney ?

You :
Ha.. ha..
Who’s the idiot one now ?

Me :
Shoot, I think I’ve had too much Indomie Goreng.
And just to think of it has made me broken hearted.

~

You :
What are we then ?

Me :
What do you mean what are we ?

You :
Come on Sherlock,
I know you know what I mean.

Me :
I don’t know..
Happy ?

You :
That a question or a statement ?

Me :
We are happy. That is a statement.
But it won’t answer your question what are we.
It’s a what. And happy is a how.

You :
That explains the question mark.
But um…

Me :
 We’re Batman and Robin.
Not that we’re Gay or something,
You know..
Since the boobs and dick.

You :
( smack )
You really need to work on that mouth !

Me :
( rubbing head )
I was making a point.

~

Me :
You know what ?
That’s the problem for tomorrow.
As you said by quoting what Zooey said.
You’re happy. I’m happy.
That’s what is important.
We don’t know what’s gonna happen in the future
But I surely don’t want us to be the confuse couple who end up miserable and finally broke up.

You :

Me :
I don’t want another phase of broken heart.
Even more to have you broken hearted.

~

You :
Do you know what is worse than a broken heart ?
Being an awkward stranger.

Me :
Yes ! you’re right !
And I can’t afford to have us like that.
Ever.

You :
( smile )
It’s really nice to hear that from you.

Me :
What ? the I can’t afford thing ?

You :
No. The you’re right thing.
This whole conversation and you’ve said it twice.
And it’s not the first of April.

Me :
( scoff )
Turns out it’s that easy to have you smile like that.

~

You :
Barney and Robin ?

Me :
Hopefully without the divorce.

~

Me :
How’s the deadline ?

You :
It’s dead !
like a line !

Me :
?

You :
( imitating heart beat machine while drawing an air-line with a flat face)
Tuuuuuttttt…..
