Mattia | Mia
"We cannot tear out a single page of our life, but we can throw the whole book in the fire."
"Is that a quote?"
"I'm not that creative to come up with such quote, so yes it is."
"You can be."
"I don't think so."
"Why do you say that?"
"Because I'm not a talented guy."
"How do you know that?"
"I'm just a failure."
"Breaking news, you aren't."
"Why is it always about me?"
"What do you mean?"
"Why isn't it about you? I'm not fucking important."
"Mattia, what are you on about?"
"Just fucking leave me alone."
"Mattia, is everything alright?"
"You keep asking the same question when you damn well know it ain't."
"I'm sorry."
"I'm surprised they didn't fire you yet."
"...."
"How old even are you?"
"I don't think it's appropriate to ask me that, Mattia."
"Answer my question."
"I'm sixteen."
"No the fuck you aren't."
"You can't be."
"Excuse me?"
"You sound...older."
"In a good way."
"Is that supposed to be a compliment?"
"Aren't you complimented?"
"You could try better."
"No."
"So how old are you?"
"Take a guess."
"Thirteen?"
"You're joking right?"
"I mean, you did tell me to take a guess."
"I'm sixteen, mia."
"Definitely knew that."
"You wouldn't wanna date a thirteen year old now, would you?"
"Are you out here throwing hints?"
"Maybe."
"Mattia..."
"I don't even know you."
"Properly."
"Or you just don't wanna get to know me."
"I never said that."
"In fact, I do wanna get to know you, as a person."
"You can stop feeling bad for me."
"And you can stop assuming things."
"Whatever."
"So are we ever going to like...."
"Talk?"
"We are talking now."
"I don't mean it in that way."
"Huh? Well what do you mean then?"
"Nothing."
