āItās okay, youāll end up getting some of my winnings for squirrel-sitting, so itās not a complete loss! Oh, good, good, I like where this is going. What if, when the music starts playing, we happy cry and run in slow motion to the otherābut then! Bam! A car hits you! And itās horrible! So we go to the hospital! And youāre in a coma, because, you know, you were hit by a car, but your soul comes to me and is likeĀ āI wish I had told you sooner,ā and itās really sadābut then! A miracle! You wake up! But, you have amnesia! So, you canāt remember all the pining, and itās really sad because youāre likeĀ āwhoās that girl?ā and I cry because I want you to know, but if I tell you, you might sacrifice stuff for me and I want you to live the best life possible, so I leave, still cryingāof course. So, time goes on, and we start living our own lives again, and then we meet in like a grocery store or somethingāa park! Thatās more romantic. Okay, so we meet in a park, and I seem familiar to you, but you donāt know why, and I donāt tell you because, you know, thereās no drama then. So then, we keep accidentally meeting in random places and your feelings start to grow all over again and one night you run to my apartment and youāre likeĀ āHey! Nev!ā and so I open my window and there you are and you shout something that you only would have remembered from before the accident and I start crying and you climb the fire escape and we both happy cry again and itās a really nice ending with more music playing in the background!ā
āHuh.ā Nev couldnāt place her finger on it, but she felt like there was something about the subject of family that wasnāt Jakeās favorite. Maybe it was him saying it wasnāt all itās cracked up to be, but for Nev, it had more to do with the way he said it. Kind of making it seem like it wasnāt a big dealāa behavior she shared.Ā āThank you. I think I will go for it, cāest la vie! Yolo! Carpe Diem! All those pump up sayings!ā
āĀ Well, I like that itās a win-win now. Iād have hung out with a squirrel for free, but hey! I donāt have to, which makes it even more a plus. I --- woah, I donāt think thereās anything I can add to that! Youāve got all the dramatic bases covered, what with souls, and memory loss, and two happy cries, not to mention the whole window thing. I wonder what it is I shout? Ah, I guess Iāll just have to wait go find out. I see now how many problems would be solved if our future selves werenāt pining, or being noble, but alas, we canāt change the potential future.Ā ā
ā Youāre steps ahead of me in mind things. You already listed all the good dramatic plots for our future, already said all the good pump up sayings. Oh! Okay, I know, Iāll give names of pump up songs, but like in a normal voice, like theyāre sayings. Eye of the tiger? Donāt stop believing? The Rocky song?Ā ā
