keyishita / jai
how did it go?
the date?
yes
she wants to meet again and give it a shot
what? really?
why are you so surprised?
i'm not
idk
did you talk?
ofcourse ishita
still she wants to meet you again?
what does that mean?
you are hot i agree but you are not exactly the charmer when you speak
so i'm hot now?
please jai
you know you're hot, ik you are hot, anyone with eyes knows you are hot
let's not play dumb and fish for compliments
it's a rare occurrence when i get compliments from you so don't blame me
so what is she doing?
she's the head surgeon in City Hospital
wow
yeah ik
both of you will be equally unavailable in the relationship
it makes things easy if i don't have to see her often
you are really considering it?
yeah it'll make life easy for me with my parents off my back
what about love?
it's a luxury i can't afford ishita
why not?
you know why
you keep reminding me of it everyday.
i'm boring, i'm too methodical, i'm too set in my ways to accommodate another person's needs and wants in my life.
but you are a good person, jai. you deserve to be loved as much as anyone in the world
love is too hard
only if you make it to be
tell me what kind of a woman do you like?
someone who makes me want to be better, someone who's so interesting that i can't not listen to her, someone who makes me smile when i least expect it, someone i can't help but love and someone who can love me effortlessly
see? you dream of love. why let it be a dream? surely you can find someone.
idk ishita
can't you wait a little longer? follow what your heart wants?
my heart wants someone who ik won't be happy with me
OMG YOU LIKE SOMEONE?
yes but it won't work
who is it?
i can't tell you
why not?
it'll complicate things
plus i'm not sure if i really like her. i'm confused.
but i have a feeling that if she is the one i get married to, i'll be happy.
have you showed interest in her?
no
then how will you know if she has the same feelings for you?
ik she doesn't
but what if you are wrong?
i'm right
okay mr know it all
whatever you say
her feelings are clear, ishita. she hates me
someone wise once said there is a thin line between love and hate
someone wise once said don't read too many romance novels
hey are you really commenting on my reading habits?
who am i to comment?
that's right asshole
goodnight ishita
hope you get your 4 hours of sleep without any problem
thanks
anytime!
see you tmrw
okay
bye then
bye
sleep well
you too jai
