— excerpt from a book I’ll never write

“ all i'm asking of you was to be there by my side . is that too much ? ”

" no ... it's not too much . look , i forgot , okay ? that's the honest truth , " head shakes incredulously , but bloodshot eyes tell another story . more intoxicated than he was leading on . " i was working , and i just got caught up in all that shit , and i just forgot . "

“ can you look me in the eye and honestly tell me you don't have feelings for me ? ”

of course , she's struggling to maintain eye contact . however , she forces herself to . " yes , i can look you in the eye and tell you that i don't have feelings for you . i don't have time for feelings . we're supposed to be just ... having fun , that's it . "
