Chapter 16:

Theo stayed with an open mouth for a while not saying a thing then David added:"

Now that you realised how bad the situation is

Don't be so surprised and making all these faces

If this gets advertised, it would be in all the places

I'll be recognised more than the actors and actresses

And behind my back I'd be criticised by all the species

So I want this to be exorcised and come back to my senses.

  Theo was impressed and liked it a lot, he told Dav that this changing is the best one between all the others but he forgot that he's friend isn't in a state to rate the changes, he was angry and anxious about that he got mad at Theo too:"

• Theo did you hear what I said or you were just focusing on the rhythm? Because you don't look like you heard a word of it; I wasn't here singing, I was complaining of this situation and Alexandra's behaviour in case you didn't remark that, well there are 2 or 3 sentences that doesn't really have a meaning but the most of them have if you couldn't notice.

• Don't mind me Dav but I did enjoy it, I mean we don't get always the situation to see you doing poetry; (excited) hold on, can you make one about love?

•Like:

Would you let me lead you even when you're blind?

In the darkness, in the middle of the night

In the silence, where there's no one by your side

Would you fall in the name of love?

• That's good, from where did you get it?

• Bebe Rexha 'In the name of love' it's a very old one it reminds me of my childhood, you didn't think I'd give myself pain in this situation to make you a stupid poetry about love, did you?

•And me who almost got surprised, I don't understand why you still like the old things.

•Old is gold my dear friend I have many beautiful memories, have you ever missed your childhood?

• No not really, you know how my childhood was, nothing to miss at all. Well how about to try one of your own? I'd like to see how far this influences you have can go.

•Like:

'Whenever I have the inspiration

I do poetry without hesitation

Now I'm stuck in this situation

And I hate it that I can't find a solution?'

(Mad)What's wrong with you Theo seriously?! You're supposed to comfort me, this is a serious matter but obviously you don't realise it because you don't live it.

•You're right man I'm really sorry, we really need to figure this out but how? Nothing crosses my mind except you visiting a doctor and you don't agree because you came from a scientist hospital, maybe you should go back to France?!

•(Nodded) There is nothing helping me at all, nothing; oh god I feel very exhausted, Alexandra from a side and my stupid friend who's caring only about the sound from another side.

•Yeah right, sorry about this too, so what's happening with the lovely boss? And by the way what Did you talk with Sophie that night? It's only now that i remembered it.

•I'm glad you came back to the reality and remembered few things."

   David resumed what happened to Theo and told him what did Sophie tell him about Alexandra, Theo felt sad for her and told David that he did a mistake then Dav told him also about their meeting in the afternoon, he then attracted his attention to the first poem he said that it was about her but he wasn't focusing on the meening.

•"David? David NICKOLS?!" a voice came from far to cut the men's conversation then they turned to see who it was.

•"OMG, Tom? How are you man? It's been a while now.

•I'm good man, I've missed the city; and you're quit famous now huh?! I saw the news and I was like 'It can't be that guy I've known years ago, he's good at nothing haha'.

•(Sarcastically)That's so nice of you trusting me that much, thanks for congratulating me I appreciate. Well! Theo this is Tom, a high school friend and Tom this Theo my best friend and brother.

•It's nice to meet you Theo; wait a second, I saw you before!

•No I don't think we've met before else I'd remember you." Answered Theo.

•"We didn't actually meet face to face, I saw you yesterday saving the cat with your girlfriend."

Dav looked at Theo with surprise then he took the word: "

• His...girlfriend? Who's that Theo?

•(Nervous)No...not at all, he must have mistaken me with someone else, yeah, it must be someone else Tom, we black people look like each other haha right.

•No I'm sure it's you, I don't mistake people and you did a good action last night so I'm pretty sure it was you; by the way, you got a nice woman (he winked at him)."

   Dav drunk another glass of wine furiously and Theo was preparing how to explain the situation then Tom wondered: "

•Did...I... say something wrong? You two have lost your colour all of a sudden.

•In the opposite, you said exactly the right thing, didn't he Theo?" Dav said.

• I feel some stress here, let's have a drink the three of us. Tell me Dav about the meteor, how was it? How did you feel? What did you see? Come on I need the details, every one needs the details in this.

•You've chosen the worst time ever to ask me about it Tom, I need to leave.

•What? I just got here! Theo, say something.

•Dav...

•When you give someone a value, a fan gives to his star

He'll end up reminding you who you are

And then you'll end up broken in a bar

Or maybe hit by a car

In all the cases, of him you should stay far

Now, I better head to my house and get a cigar.

   I know it's a nonsense but it just came out.

•(Surprised) Since when you do poetry David?

•That was just a stupid line that came to my head Tom, it has no meaning at all."

   Dav left without adding a word and Theo followed him running, so Tom stayed alone not getting what was going on. Theo followed Dav to explain things to him but David didn't wait for him, he got really mad, the only person he considered as his brother and thought he'd be with him in his bad days to comfort him lied to him just to meet a woman he only met once; this idea hurt David a lot but Theo had reasons too that he tried to explain them to Dav, he told him that he didn't know how Sophie was feeling towards him and he had already asked her out he was afraid she'd think he isn't a man at his words, Dav answered with a low voice feeling disappointed and sad:" If you were the one who called me, I would have left the whole world for you, and yeah! You really are not a man at your word."

   Dav left and Theo kept calling him with a sorry voice but Dav only raised his hand as to say 'never mind' and Theo felt a little hurt by Dav's last words.
