(I opened the door
and let him in)
Thanks for coming
It's been nothing but
cough-vomit-sniffling
also hostile inner heat
but I feel clammy cold.
(I offered him a seat)
It's the flu I was told
No antibiotics needed just yet
but man my clothes get soaking wet.
It's no biggie my dearie
I brought you some mee
in spicy sour soup too
and your favourite tofu.
You look so pale
it makes me sad.
By the way, I broke up with
...that girl
it went really bad
I need your advice.
Can't believe such a nice
lady like her
could break my heart and say
"It's over."
Well, errr...
Every end is a new start?
But hey, I'm sorry for your loss
What did you do to make her so cross?
From Facebook updates you both seemed so happy
Man, you don't even spend any more time with me
It's always cosplay this,
or gathering that,
(I specially praised his realistic Luffy hat)
So tell me bro what made her unfurl
and I'll opine with my views as a girl.
You better lie down
you look like you'd faint
(...so I did)
I'll tell the whole tale
a short story it ain't.
It's her parents, man
they want me away from their daughter
said she's too young
said she has exams
said she needs to focus on her future.
They don't understand
I REALLY LOVE HER!
Calm down bro
take it slow
Have you talked it out?
You know,
try to gain some clout
prove that you won't be a bother
show good things regarding your career.
What about her?What did she say?
Did you tell her all this?
Did she promise she'd stay?
That's the problem, man
That's the whole issue
I'm all alone
She pushes me away too
Here, read her texts on my phone
Careful with the screen
It's a Sony, it's brand new, it gets wonky
And tweets nonsense in between randomly
Yeah you laugh now
but imagine how
I'm being all emo
(she stalks my Timeline, I know)
and "Houston rabbit giddy bath tub" pops up?
That was not a laugh
that was me holding in a cough
Give it to me here
let me see the BS you kids can conjure.
(So I scrolled the whole way through
from "will you be mine" up to
spur-of-the-moment I hate you's
It definitely was a childish fight
being older I might
slip some sense into his skull
and make things right
He's like a brother to me
My real brother is way cuter but still...
Good deeds are supposed to be easy
and he brought me food when I'm ill.
I was thinking this until...)
Can I touch you?
What?
I said...
No.
Don't be a twat.
I'm in no condition to get laid
It's totally inappropriate
let's leave it at that.
But you're not wearing a bra!
Just let me cop a little feel.
No.
I brought you a meal!
I'll just sneak through your skirt
you're so wet with sweat
I can see rosebuds under your shirt
I can't help it, I'm a man
Help me just this once if you can.
(And he was quick
and his hand reached
under my slip
and he squeezed
I was shaking as I sneezed
but I didn't find it shocking
that he did as he pleased.
I was filled with rage
How could someone
I trust
I adore
I care
indeed
even in my weak state of need
assault me this way?
What should I say?
No?
Fuck off?
Go?
All in my head.
I opened the door
and wished him good luck with his girlfriend instead).
