tell me he did not just do that...

nothing like the class of talking about someone to a caller, when that person is sitting in the next room.

nothing like lowering ones voice, referring to me as 'that other person' then realising how foul the behaviour is... and backward steps and trying to reverse the conversation...

well my friend, when your world next falls down - when next you're alone - when next you percieve the world is done with you - I, as usual, expect my phone to ring. and you can expect me to answer. and be there. i dont know how to do much else.

I will tell you how brilliant you are, in spite of how you treat me - how you attempt to break me - attempt to get to me. in or out of partnership you 'win'. it's inherent - you have to... its who you are. i am not a winner. not like that.

SO know, that in spite of your best attempts, to put me off side, to break my stride and to ruin me or what we've had or even do have... aren't going to work. You will need me one day, like you did on Monday. and you'll be thankful for me. As i am of you. each day.

you'll always mean a lot to me...even if i do not in kind... and that, my friend, is honestly okay.

I, thankfully, have me.

Cheers
