Dangerously in Love

The Next Day

She thought he already called her 'babe' again on the previous chat, so she thought they're good. But when she chatted him up, he's cold. That's why she asked him, "Are we good?"

He replied, "I don't understand. Good in what sense?" 

She replied, "Like we're ok and we moved on past our fights and back together?" 

He responded, "Just have second thoughts over everything. To be honest, I really don't know. If I'm to continue. But yeah, just thinking tho. My whole day has been trying to put things together. Really stressful. So yeah. Really can't answer that." 

She then agrees to give him time, "Ok then, I give you time. What things? About us?" 

He answers, "No need for that. You giving me time doesn't change anything. I'm thinking of everything. Us. The whole relationship thing. It's giving me serious issues to cope with. Really thinking it over. But it's all good." 

She replied, "I see. So we're just hanging by the thread then. Like hanging there."

He replied, "If you say soo..." 

She responded, "I do miss your hey baby text." 

He replied, "Really does not matter at this point." 

She still wants him so she proposes, "I still want to be with you. Not anyone else. I don't want to lose you. But you seemed cold and now I feel it's just one-sided like it seems it's just me who's still excited about us while you are just hanging there. Like do you still want me? Do you still want us to be together? In every relationship, I believe it's not perfect...there's still some that require work...and that's the beauty of it. I still see my parents fight over little things and they've been together for about 32 years." 

He responded, "You're funny. Little things you say. Not repeated things, not silly things, not things that are so uncalled for. You don't just get. You fucking stresses me out. I don't just want to have this talk. Really not in the mood. Well, I really don't know about this. But I just hope things don't turn out that way. Because that's what it is. The stress from you has been much, like crazy and we are both two different people. I kept on warning you all this while. All these months. Maybe you felt inward bluffing but I know my self. I have a limit to anything. That's just me. Really can't change that. Kept on pleading with you to stop all the stuff you kept doing repeatedly but you never listened. Now you have pushed me to the wall so bad. Everything just seems like a complete turn off for me. Like really fucked up." 

She doesn't know how to respond to this other than, "Wow. So you have reached your limit then." 

He replied, "That's just the point I'm at. I really can't say if I still want us to be together. As I said, really thinking. To be honest, to continue all of this would take a whole lot off me. You are very difficult to cope with. Been trying. Over this months to change this but you do forget that it's not just you. What about me? How do you think I feel getting all those attitude response and behaviour from you? Kept pleading with you but you never took me seriously. I have really tried for us. For you. Been here. Taking all your bullshit. Something I don't do for anybody even my mum. Like I don't take shit from her. But you failed to understand this. You do have a book, a rundown of everything. I have been patient. I tried my best to work out things. Both the first, second and even third time. Not even the forth. We have had useless issues over different things that are so uncalled for. Really don't think I'm in for all of this. It's affecting me. I can't cope. Deep down, I know I've tried. Naturally, I feel you are stubborn like you don't listen. You just do what you want to do. I feel that's why you are like this. Because even if it's a child been scolded this way over time, he or she must have learnt a lesson. But you, don't just get. You're very adamant to a lot of things and that's bad. If you continue this way, it would cost you something in future. Because that attitude is very bad and horrible."
