You Have ONE New Message

5th December 2014

Matt: Evening, beautiful.

Anah: Where have you been?!

Matt: Why? Have you been waiting by your cell waiting for me to text?

Anah: Yes.

Matt: Really?

Anah: Really.

Matt: Interesting.

Anah: I've been trying to do other stuff to keep me occupied...

Matt: Such as?

Anah: Well, I tried to read a book but I just couldn't concentrate. Then I decided to wrap some Christmas presents... then I got really frustrated because the stupid thing wouldn't wrap tidy... then I got really angry so now I'm meditating, but I don't think it's working. The whales are driving me crazy with their whining.

Matt: Whales?

Anah: Eden swears by yoga and relaxation music. She gave me a CD but it's just full of whales 'singing' but they sound more like they're drowning than, you know, singing.

Matt: Whales can't drown.

Anah: Whatever... they sound like beached whales.

Matt: That's mean.

Anah: Yeah, well... that's what they sound like.

Matt: I'm guessing you're really frustrated.

Anah: Like you wouldn't believe.

Matt: What was the book you tried to read?

Anah: The Time Traveler's Wife.

Matt: Didn't like it?

Anah: I saw the movie... and I hated it. So, on principal that the movie was awful, I automatically hate the book. Plus, it's too much romance for me.

Matt: And God forbid if you're exposed to too much romance.

Anah: Exactly.

Matt: What were you trying to wrap?

Anah: Perfume. I bought Eden some perfume and it comes in cylindrical packaging and it was horrible to wrap.

Matt: And the meditating?

Anah: I quite liked that... apart from the crappy music.

Matt: Why didn't you try music that you like? The Eagles?

Anah: Um... I hadn't thought of that.

Matt: Maybe next time, then.

Anah: Maybe.

Matt: Just one thing, though...

Anah: What?

Matt: Why were you trying to occupy yourself in the first place?

Anah: Because I've gone right back to the start when it comes to my Matt List.

Matt: Right back to the start?

Anah: Yep. I've put all the Matthews back in the game.

Matt: All of the Matthews?

Anah: All of the Matthews. But then I got confused.

Matt: Confused?

Anah: Again- why do you repeat everything I say?

Matt: Double checking, that's all. So, you got confused?

Anah: Yeah... I just... My brain is fried.

Matt: You know how you can stop that from happening?

Anah: By blackmailing you into telling me who you are?

Matt: Nice try.

Matt: But no.

Anah: Then how, Obi Wan?

Matt: Stop looking.

Anah: Stop looking?

Matt: Now who's the parrot?

Anah: Parrot?

Matt: You're repeating what I'm saying... like a parrot.

Anah: You're on thin ice, buddy.

Matt: Sorry... But, yeah- stop looking. You'll find me in two weeks and one day.

Anah: But that's still two weeks and one day too much.

Matt: It's not, really... I've been waiting the better part of my life for the Winter Ball.

Anah: Do you really want me to stop looking for you?

Matt: I want you to stop stressing about it.

Anah: Easier said than done, Honey Bun.

Matt: I know, Babe.

Matt: I love you, Penguin.

Anah: I love you too, Matthew.

Matt: I better let you get back to your meditation.

Anah: Um... yeah. Thanks. And I'm gonna take your advice.

Matt: You're gonna stop looking?

Anah: Highly unlikely... but I am gonna put on some of my music and chill out.

Matt: Enjoy.

Anah: I don't think that's possible.

Matt: Isn't that what meditation is for? Enjoyment and relaxation?

Anah: Um... I wouldn't know. When I need to enjoy or relax I either go to Krav Maga classes or run. It's too late for either of those, so...

Matt: Either way, just relax.

Matt: I love you, Anah.

Anah: You already said that a minute ago.

Matt: And? I love you more now that I did a minute ago and you needed to know that.

Anah: I love you too, you sap.
