Of the last few weeks, break ups had been surrounding me.
Too many couples in my circles had broken up and chose solitary life.
And while there are too many dramatic mantras that plagued me...there were actually several funny sidelights to it.
One of them was this friend of mine who couldn't get over an ex of almost four months.
Ha. Ha.
One day he called the gang to join him for coffee only to find out that it was actually a call for the breakdown scene.
Geesh. I have never seen him cry with matching shoulder movements as if I'm watching one of the up-and-coming actresses of the silverscreen.
Problem is, the scene isn't really what you call cinematic.
Anyways, the breakdown scene lasted for about three hours and then the gang called it a night.
But then again, we were fooled into thinking that breakdown boy has consumed all his tears and thoughts on the breakup and would now be able to move on.
This afternoon, he went to the mall and bought the magic 8 ball.
Yes, the ball you shake to get answers like "Yes" "Definitely" "My sources say no", etc which puts the old coin toss -head for a yes vs tail for a no- decision-making process.
This time, the magic 8 ball gives so many interesting answers whenever you throw a question.
Unfortunately for the ball, our breakdown boy kept asking questions like..."are we going to get back together?"..."does he want me to surprise him on our 4th monthsarry?"...."would he be happy to see me on friday?"....and so on and so forth so help me God.
I was laughing by myself on the bus whenever I get a text update from the gang on the question and the interesting answer that the ball has given.
Question is...does he really need the magic 8 ball? when in fact, the only question that really matters are :
Does he still love him?
Does he want to see him again?
To which the only answer is NO.
Sad but true. My friend, the breakdown boy had been given the answer and yet didn't want to take the answer...resorted to a breakdown scene..tried to dry up his tears and spent money to alter the answer his ex has given him.
To think that it was only almost four months.
I wonder how many magic 8 balls will he get if their relationship went beyond the almost four months before he broke up with him.
And I'm sad for the magic 8 ball...mainly because he will be overused until such time he accepts that no matter what the magic 8 ball say...the ex's answer will always be NO.
