well, what do they look like?
the question was innocent enough, I thought. if I'm looking for something, I want to know what I'm looking for. you didn't bother turning in my direction, only snickered a response over your shoulder.
they look like keys.
I narrowed my eyes in embarrassment and anger, wondering if you knew the many varieties of keys. there are house keys, car keys, mailbox keys... keys with lanyards, keys on rings... all kinds of keys. I didn't bother explaining this to you, as you saw the look on on my face and sobered up apologetically. I made a mental note to dislike you in the future.
I saw you a few weeks later. the incident was still fresh on my mind. you smiled, I scowled. you laughed at me again.
