“Has the bus been?”

“Yes. We are all stood here with our luggage as a tribute to those brave souls willing to venture on such devices. I swear, there were tears and everything.”

“No need to be rude.”

“Sarcastic.”

“What?”

“I was sarcastic not rude. If I were being rude I would have said use your brain, moron, we are all stood here with luggage still waiting on a bus.”

“I forgot how pedant you could be, always reminding me I’m not as smart as you.”

“Just as you remind me just how smart I am.”

“You are putting on a show for these strangers, I understand why, you are insecure.”

“I was, insecure that is. I did everything you ever wanted, more if I thought it would please you. But it was never enough.

“We were happy.”

“You were. To me, as soon as at that ring hit my finger, it was as though I no longer knew you. I was never good enough.”

“I said I was wrong.”

“Yes you were. The bus is coming in, I have to go.”

“That is what I’m saying you don’t have to.”

“Yes I do. I told you when we got together I was a one hit wonder, and why. You chose to ignore me.”

“This ticket is valid anywhere on my route. I need a destination to put in though.”


“Anywhere but here.”
