The games we play Some days you just idle around listening to the latest Jay album that has been replaying over iTunes for the umpteen time, wondering how to solve that horrible mechanics question when you know that there is absolutely nothing wrong with your assumptions and equations or calculations yet you still can't get the text book specified answer. That is when you go berserk and scream and curse at whatever thing that's within grasp. You sigh for a sec that the dog is at aunt's place otherwise she could have amused you cos she's just so adorable. You start thinking about her. About how it could be or should have been. You want to say those three words. But in your mind you say no, that's not happening. You start thinking you should stop being so fucked up and in the words of Russell Peters, "Be a man , do the right thing"

Ping
The small alert appears on the top right hand corner informing you that so and so has just login. You do backfips somersaults cartwheels. You want to talk, but you can't gather enough courage to do that. You spend forever trying to figure out what the next course of action to be. Your stomach lurches. You click her name.

You type. "Hey"

You feel giddy, your hand turns cold. You start to wonder why she's taking so long to reply. You start to worry that maybe you're being a bother. You start getting nervous. Your heart stops.

"hi there"

Your heart sighs a heavy heave of relief You rejoice, the dots connect. Everything falls into place.

And that is argubly the (dumbest) game we play.
