Yes, yes. Of course I'm fine.
The days go by, and I'm getting my work done.
Things are going as planed and I actually bought
that plant I was talking to you about.
You know which one, that basil.
I called her Clarissa.
She is most likely dead as we speak
but she kept me good company over the weekend.
I heard you were out, enjoying a crush. or maybe two.
I imagined you dance and smile and being radiant as you are
and I was happy.
No, yes, I'm fine.
I even finished that book I bought for your birthday.
It spoke about some menial matter,
like the ones I am always preoccupied with.
It had a beautiful ending.
Don't ask me what it was because I forgot.
I just have the feeling it was beautiful.
And meaningful.
Please stop asking. I'm fine.
It's just that, I'm a little sad.
You see, you are starting to become trivial to me.
Just like the rest.
No, I know it's entirely my fault
but you see.
You're becoming trivial.
Like all the rest.
