“What’s New?” He asks.

by Little Miss Attila on August 24, 2009

“Everyone hates me because I’m weird,” I respond.

“I know.”

“Wait—which part did you know? That everyone hates me?”

“Yes. I’ve got that part.” He places the notebook on a side table.

I still on his lap. “Okay. You realize that I’m weird?”

“Yup. No question, there.”

“How about the cause-and-effect relationship?”

“That’s clear, too.”

I kiss his cheek. “Okay. Then I’ll be on the other side of the room. Just yell if you need some fresh-cut pineapple or something.”

“Sure thing.” He smiles, and puts his headphones back on. I giggle, and fire up my own computer.

There’s nothing quite like being well-understood and yet still accepted by the closest people in your life.

Sort of what I imagine a soft down cocoon might feel like on a crisp autumn day.
