Thanks For Asking

(Pretending he called).Oh, I'm just fine. Thanks for asking. How are you (before he even answers)...oh that's good to hear. I wish I could chat, but I'm really busy. (Trying to be polite). Ummm, yea I'll give you a call. (With no intentions of doing so) In fact why don't you just hold your breath until I do. (Hoping he'll turn 'blue' before I have time). Hurt? Crying? No. Don't be silly, I wouldn't waste my time with that. (Funny I"d waste my time with him though). How perceptive, how'd you know I was just trying to be nice. (like you really thought you didn't rip my heart out and give a kick). Well, it was nice talking to you. (Like I really wanted to talk to you). See ya. (hopefully not).

The sad part, I wish I could have all that inner monologue, but crazy me I was just talking to myself. Like he would actually call his "friend" to see if they miss their heart, or even if they've even found it after the recent explosion.  I'm so lost and he's such an ass he won't even call to see if I'm ok.
