bulletproof
Two weeks ago the girl I’ve kinda been seeing asked me if I would go with
her to her brother’s intervention, and I said fine, because basically I’ll
do anything a woman asks me to do, plus her brother’s just a little fella
and so I wasn’t worried about what he’d do if he freaked out. I met Mike
(that’s the brother’s name) a few times and he seemed like kinda a prick
but not somebody who needed serious help but then what do I know about it.
Right? So Melissa (that’s the girl I’ve kinda been seeing) says no, you
don’t know, he borrowed all this money from my mom and me and it’s all
gone and so I should have kept my mouth shut but I say well what’s a lot
of money and Melissa says a couple hundred dollars with this serious tone
in her voice like that’s a statement that speaks for itself and I say a
couple hundred dollars? and she says you say that like that’s not a lot of
money and I say well I mean it’s a lot of money and she says didn’t you
just get fired from your stupid little job at the mall? and I say listen
I’m not saying it’s not a lot of money but okay so how long has it been
and she says two weeks and I’m like, in my head, I’m like oh god here we
go, I knew there was something. But even past all that I still go to the
intervention and even break into this guy’s apartment just so we can
surprise him when he gets home from work and not only does he have the
money (which it turns out was a total of eighty bucks) but he borrowed the
money to get his mom this really fancy looking china cabinet and he even
drives us all, like all nine of us waiting for him, down to the storage
place out by the airport so we can see it. Happy birthday, mom! I mean,
that’s pretty much when I knew. But the good thing of it is that I met
Melissa’s sister at the intervention. Don’t give me that look.
