"I hate you."

[Monday, May 25, 2020]

Incoming call from Mother ducker

"What!"

"Hey weirdo, were you sleeping?"

"No, I was skydiving."

"Oh, cool."

"Keith it's freaking 2 AM what is wrong with you?"

"I forgot what you were like after midnight. I should disturb your sleep more, it's so entertaining.

"..."

"Hello?"

"I hate you."

"Were you having a happy dream?"

"I just fucking fell asleep so no."

"Woah, you just swore! I just made The righteous Iris swear! I feel so accomplished oh wow."

"And now I hate you even more."

"They say there's a thin line between love and hate."

"That's bullshit."

"Nope, it's true. Let me tell you a true story."

"..."

"When I was a highschool junior, there was this girl in my math class. We used to compete all the time. We hated each other. Our friends used to give both of us the same question to see who could solve it sooner. Most of the time it was either we finished at the same time or a few seconds apart. And let me tell ya, no one thought we would end up dating. But we did. I realised I've never really hated her. I actually had a major crush on her without knowing it."

"..."

"Not to brag or anything, but I was known as 'The human calculator' back in highschool. I remember how much she hated when people called me that. We were always annoyed at each other until... well until we just weren't."

"..."

"So, still think the love-hate relationship concept is bullshit, or did I convince you yet?"

"..."

"Hello? Iris?"

"..."

"Iris?"

"..."

"Oh man...you fell asleep while I'm talking to you? This hurts my feelings."

"..."

"Well, what can I do? What's done is done."

"..."

"Sweet dreams, weirdo."
