On the way back from driving a friend to the airport and seeing him off, the two of us had a long journey ahead of us, sans music, sans radio. It had been a long day, admist tears, emotional goodbye speeches, tense laughing fits at our ‘spot’ , and last minute embraces-we were all out of emotion. That last cheap ‘tusi jaa rahey ho?’ moment hardly got a grunt out of us.
Sipping our disposable cokes, all out of any form of nicotine, we start doing what we do best- talking shit.
‘So, howcome you didn’t cry when he left?’
‘Well firstly coz all the stupid girls crying were just trying to get some attention, they hardly ever spoke to the guy. Its his moment, not some random girls with runny eyeliner. And secondly, coz he wasn’t my best friend or anything. Ive known him since nursery true, but we never really bonded.’
‘Funny, I always thought you two were closer than that’
‘No no I mean, he was in my pool of friends- but not.. but not.. in the MIDDLE of my pool you know.’
‘Acha now it makes sense. So am I in the middle of your pool?’
‘Honey your wearing a frilly swimsuit and those ugly speedo sticky hair caps.’
‘I want floats too.’
'For survival purposes?'
'Nope for visual impact.'
‘Fine, take floats.’
‘So is he (names horrible fungus of a human being) in the middle of your pool?’
‘Are you fucking crazy? He dipped his feet and figured it was way too bloody cold.’

glad to see how you tackled a post that is essentially about parting.
Incidentally where in teh pool do your blogger freinds belong? or is that an entirely different pool altogether? A jaccuzzi perhaps?
