Better to run away or face the music?

Is the battery out? Now throw the phone too for good measure

Is the sim card destroyed? You should fold it in half if you’re cleaver

Is the backpack loaded? Are you kidding?! I’ve had it ready since forever

Is the money ready? I broke the piggybank for my savings so no pressure

It’s cold out here. Don’t worry I’m protected with my sweater

Was the stove switched off? Who gives a damn, I’m not going back there, not ever.

You sure you can’t go back? Are you crazy?! My pants just got wetter

She’ll beat me. I won’t let her

She loved it more than everything put together

I’ll now be a beggar

Better than facing her terror

It’s just a blender though?!

You don’t understand it was Haier. Blends carrots and shallots into paste in half a minute or under

What do you think it’ll do to our hand so soft and tender?

Now grab your bike and let’s head out. How long to the arcade I wonder?
