When Will I Be Loved Page #3

But that's good.

I will absolutely try to.

We'll have some surprises for you, too.

Okay? Sorry, I should have called.

But okay. Thank you.

- I don't know what to say.

- Pardon?

You don't have to know. What are you

doing today? You having a good day?

Just hanging around.

I had to go to class.

Really?

Are you waiting for someone here?

- You.

- No?

Do you think I can get

your number sometime?

- Yeah.

- Yeah?

I got it.

Ended up being a beautiful day, huh?

Yes.

Beautiful weather, 80 degrees,

sunshine. You know what I'm saying?

You stay here in the country.

- You put a little suit on.

- I call from somebody else's phone.

Exactly. You go into a big business,

like a hotel, or something. Right?

Hotel's good.

You doing anything tonight?

I'm not sure yet. But I'll let you know.

- All right.

- Okay. Cool. Thank you.

Nice meeting you.

Sorry about that.

Are those students of yours?

- No, those are actually teachers.

- Oh, really?

Yeah.

And I assume

that's an old friend of yours?

From about five years ago.

Haven't seen him in a while.

Like the other guy, too?

- Actually, it's weird I saw both of them.

- It is weird.

I'm the mouthpiece. So I'm taking

most of the risk. It's 60l40.

When did you become a negotiator?

I'm taking the risk.

You're here in the country.

- If sh*t goes-

- I'm in the country?

If sh*t goes down,

you get five months, tops.

- I'm the one outside dealing with sh*t.

- Whatever.

That raises an interesting question.

Did you actually know

those two guys...

you strangely enough approached?

Or were they new?

No. Like I said, one of them, this

last guy, I haven't seen in five years.

It was a shock to see him. The other

I haven't seen in a couple of years.

Now, if we're going to work together...

the only way to make it worthwhile

is if we're truthful.

So I am going to say something abrupt

to you. I think you're lying.

I think you took the occasion...

of my odd sudden encounters...

to, in effect, explore the possibility...

of knowing two men on one street

whom you found attractive...

and there's no reason you shouldn't be

able to admit that if that's the case.

Okay, you're right.

No, I hadn't met them before.

Forget it. Listen, mail-order brides,

are you familiar with that concept?

Nothing judgmental. In fact,

to tell you the truth, it intrigues me.

And I believe that you're...

obviously in your early-middle 20s.

You're on a journey, as we all are.

And that journey is just beginning.

I'm at a different stage of my life.

I feel it necessary now to have

a social-philosophical context...

to feel I'm doing good in bringing

races, colors, and creeds together.
