Another Sh*tty Love Story

Chapter seven: loser

Dublin (Ireland)||Wednesday 6:30

I go to the party with clothes that the squip said would be suitable for this party.

They were casual clothing nothing too bad.

Yes I couldn't give you a flashy or colourful outfit....you stand out now....

I guess she's right....

I am always right Mia

I go over to that popular guy again (I think his name is Mark or something) he was drinking alcohol.

"Want some?"

Decline his offer.

But I thought most people got drunk-

Some do it to hide pain you don't want to look in pain....do you?

Wait what? Mark's in pain?

I SAID SOME PEOPLE

Okay,okay can I atleast find Grace?

Fine

I go to find Grace but she's no where...

Bummer.

I see alcohol on the table....

Don't even think about it

I drink it.

M-mIa WhAt HaVe Y-yOu DoNnNeE

I into a bathroom....and look myself in the mirror....I really have changed....I'm not a loser...a geek...and I'm not who I was before...

I can hear movement in the bath I go over and open the curtains and-

"Tommy? I didn't know you were invited to this party?"

"I wasn't...thats Why I'm wearing...this clever disguise!"

( mean it was okay deffintally not an outfit someone popular would wear)

I just stare at him

"You're speechless...squip got your tongue?"

"How did you- plus it's off...."

"That would explain why you're talking to me. I've been thinking about this moment. What I would say to you? I had this really pissed monologue, an epic journey through twelve years of our friendship...(Mia off) what?"

"Its just...really good to see you, Tom"

"It won't be. Once you hear what I found out"

"Found out?"

"About" he taps his head two times (he's talking about the squip)

"How-? There's nothing on the internet-"

"Which is weird right? I mean, what's not on the internet? So I started asking around. Finnaly, this guy I played Warcraft with...Told me his brother went from a straight D student to a first year student at Trinity. You know where he is now?"

"Really happy and successful?"

"He's in a mental hospital. Totaly lost it".

"I don't see what that has to do with-"

"Think, Mia! We're talking a insanely powerful super-computer. You really think this is primary function just to get you laid? Who made them? How did it get into a Secondary school? IN DUBLIN!?!?. Of all the applications for such a mind- blowingly advanced technology, you ever wonder what it's doing inside of YOU?"

"And I thought Grace was jealous..."

"I am honestly asking!"

"Really? Because I think you're pissed I have one and you don't!"

"Come on-"

"Maybe I got lucky, is that so weird? With my history, I'd say the universe owed me one. And I don't know about your friend's brother's whatever, but if you're telling me his squip made him crazy-"

"His squip didn't make him crazy"

"Oh. Well there you go."

"He went crazy trying to get it out!"

"Then I have nothing to worry about. Why would I want that?"

I head to the door but Tom gets in my way

"Move it"

"Or you'll what?"

"Get out of my way...loser..." I shove him aside and go out the door.
