(Just chewing, eating my food… drinking coconut water)… What? Why are you staring at me?
(Smiling, still staring)… I like you.
LOL….
No. I don’t like you. I love you.
(Sigh)… I never told you this, but I really wanted to hear that line from someone else… before I met you.
Who?
The Villain.
(Eyerolling) — Fucking hate that guy. He’s an idiot.
Yes. Well, was… he was an idiot. In that context. He’s not an idiot now. He is not an idiot in his career. He is not an idiot to his wife, or his kids. He’s not an idiot, in real life.
(Shrugs shoulders) Why are we talking about him?
Because… the first time that you said that line… I didn’t know how to explain it like this.
I like saying that line. It’s something that made me realise, I love you.
Okay. So… I can learn to accept that.
I’m going to keep saying it. All the time. At breakfast. In the mornings. When we’re eating peacefully.
Okay…? Fine…?
I want to remind you, I’m here. Not him.
Okay. (Nodding)
