Hey. Let me begin this time.

As you wish tube light.

What should I call you? Obsessed with barbie dolls? Or obsessed with Spider-Man?

I prefer
NONE.

Then I'll call you both, I guess.

Whatever.

What are you doing?

Me?
Irritating a tube light.

That wasn't funny at all you know.

Whoa. You're talking.
What were you doing?

I am eating fried chips and Coke.

And I am ordering pizza. With extra cheese.

I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I'm the only human being in the world who hates pizzas.

Seriously?

Yes. I always try pizzas in the hope that they'll be good, but they don't turn out good at all.
In fact, I prefer burgers.

Where do you order from?

Dominuz.

Exactly. Pizza Hat is better.

I don't care. They all are the same.
And the worst is mushroom pizzas. The idea of eating fungi is disgusting.

You are a bio student.

How did you know?

The way you called mushroom a fungi. Come on, it's food. You don't call it fungi unless you're a bio student.

What's your name?

Not your barbie doll.

No. Your actual real name.

Why do you care? You can call me Hugh Jackman. Except he's way too older than me.

And you can call me Britney Spears.

But I'll call you Alia Mehra.

How did you know my name?
Oh of course. My bio.

To my advantage.

Well at least I know you're Canadian. Like Celine Dion.

And you're Indian. Like Indians.

Very funny.

I'm from Quebec. But now I live in Vancouver.
Why am I even telling you this?

Hah. Got you.
I live in New Delhi, but I'm from Kolkata.

How do I even care?

Bonjour.

Namastey.

Fine. I give up on you. I was trying to talk you up.

You can't do that.

You are impossible.

Says the impossible herself.

What's your name?!

Noah Boucher.

See? It was that easy.

Now that you know my name, tube light..

Yes, Noah?

Argh!

Haha. I'm enjoying this.
Noah. Noah. Noah.
Whoa.

I'm done with this. Talk to you later, actually whenever you're feeling normal.

Okay Noah. Bye!
