@ Koby, Peter

Oliver: Did one of you leave the tea kettle on?

Peter: o_o

Koby: WHY DO YOU ALWAYS BLAME ME? R u d e.

[kobyadams]

I….hm. Yeah.

Here. Same building, just downstairs. I didn’t want to be far from you.

You know I’m right.

I might not stay here. I’m, uh, probably going to see if Peter wants to live with me.

[kobyadams]

Im…I’m sorry.

I’m sorry Koby.

You should be. You’re self-centered, dude.

...but I kinda don’t wanna have this fight right now. Are you staying in the city or going to Jersey?

[kobyadams]

What? I don’t think you’re dumb…I just..never had the chance to bring it up

Could have told me before the boxes came. Text, post-it note, email, carrier pigeon...

[kobyadams]

Eli…and I talked about getting a place together.

Not splitting up…I can’t quit you, Kobes.

You’re moving out, that’s splitting up. I see the boxes everywhere. I’m not dumb.

[kobyadams]

Oh my GOD jesus Koby.

Hey, we gotta chat. Our lease is up soon.

And...you wanna split up, right?

[kobyadams]

Where did you even come from

Faulty condom.

[oliver--maney]

I…thought I had switched the light in this kitchen. Apparently not.

[kobyadams]

Surprise, bitch.

[kobyadams]

Yeah! Oof, Kob, she’s mi reina. My queen.

I’d bumped into her before, but the timing wasn’t right. Then, next thing I know, she’s calling my ass out in Mud House and it was like being struck by lightening.

You have such a way with words. C’mere.

So it was that quick, huh? Love at first sight.

[kobyadams]

Her name is… Cecilia. The name of an angel, no?

Oh my god! Does she work at the Spot? She’s so nice!

Fill me in. I demand an invite to the wedding.

[kobyadams]

You have an easy time talking to just about anyone, something I admire about you. I don’t think I’m very special in that regard. 

Of course, I get that. Just know that little voice that says are your going to drift apart is wrong. He’s not growing apart from you, him and his boyfriend want to play house and walk around naked in the kitchen. Unless you want to get in on that, be happy for him and know your friendship can’t be shaken by a little space. 

I don’t know if that’s a talent....I just like talking and sometimes people listen to me. Psst I think you are, for the record.

I know all that, like, objectively. But it feels so final and I can’t stop my brain from moving so fast. I don’t like when people leave, a lot of people have you know.

[kobyadams]

Your friendship has gone so much, different apartments are nothing. 

We lived in different continents and we’re still close. 

I mean, that’s you. You’re easy to talk to. I guess I’m scared of the what-ifs, you know?

[kobyadams]

She said she had a good feeling.

Manny MANNY who is it?!

[kobyadams]

Well Koby… This happens when you fall in love and grow up. 

Doesn’t make him love you any less and you will always be in each others life. 

I, um, I hope so.

[kobyadams]

That’s understandable. We want the people whom we love to be around us. Surround us. That’s a community.

But let me ask you this. If he moves out, what are the chances of you never seeing him again?

Um, pretty low. But what if he forgets about me? What if he, like, has kids and I never get to meet them or what if he gets married and I only find out on social media? I don't want to drift apart the way people do.

[kobyadams]

I don’t like it when people leave. Makes me sad.

[kobyadams]

That’s a big change. How do you feel about that?

What makes you think he doesn’t want to tell you?

I dunno.
