Over Friendly Friend
Johan
HELLO BUDDY BUDDY!! Whatcha doin Gatra? Having tea with your mom?
Gatra
...Your jokes are horrible
Johan
Eheh. Sorry not sorry
Johan
Moving to Bandung eh? What's it there? Is it nice?
Gatra
Haven't explored yet
Johan
Well, that's expected from you
Johan
I heard Bandung's girls are awesome
Gatra
By “awesome” you mean...?
Gatra
This is not the time, Johan
Johan
Just trying to cheer you up
Johan
Btw, you changed your phone or smth? Is it the Brama Government approved one?
Gatra
Yep. I don't wanna get in jail or stalked by some scary corporates
Johan
Should've been doin it earlier, man
Johan
This phone is AWESOME!!!!
Johan
RAMA is such a good A.I, better than my previous one at least
Johan
So what's up? Why are you texting me all of a sudden?
Gatra
About our "disagreement"....
Johan
What? You don't remember?
Johan
Seriously? It almost break our long last friendship! Ugh, thinking about it makes me feel awkward as hell
Johan
Basically, I've been a bastard
Johan
Not trying to be defensive or anything, but I think it's a coping mechanism
Johan
I'm picking on you for days, after I failed my mid-term exam. Since you're the smart kid, y'know
Johan
You remember my relationship with my parents, right? So they got mad at me. I mean, REALLY MAD. They've been pushing me to study hard since I was a little kid. I grew up in a strict family who value academy shits more than anything. Which sucks btw
Johan
I got mad back at them. Had a mental breakdown for quite some time. And the next day, I dump it all on you
Johan
And then, you fight back. Verbally, I mean. But we almost legit fight. It's a mess, I know
Johan
I'm sorry, Gatra. I know it's just months ago, but I feel like back then I'm still really immature
Johan
Hey, what if I make up for it? I know it's a long time ago, and I've apologized like millionth times. But really, I wanna talk to you like before. Becoming bros again, y'know?
Johan
Wanna grab some iced tea? Go to carnivals? Theaters? Whatever? I'm pretty sure I can go to Bandung next week. I've been making money for myself and my parents can't get pissed off on me for something soooo simple
Gatra
I just feel... weird
Gatra
I know we've been friends for a long time. But... I can't really explain it, I just feel I don't know you
Johan
Um, sorry. Don't mean to disrespect you or anything
Johan
But if we are on the same page....
Johan
IS IT AMNESIA???!!! LIKE, LITERALLY AMNESIA???!!!
Johan
I'M TALKING TO MY AMNESIA FRIEND OH GOD
Gatra
What? No. Really, no
Johan
I doubt someone with amnesia will realize the had amnesia...
Gatra
Johan, no. It's just a feeling. A tiny bit of feeling. Nothing special
Gatra
But thinking about it, you're really "friendly"
Johan
...Is that a compliment?
Gatra
You're too friendly. I know my Mom mentioned you've become a "really sweet kid", but for someone who didn't met or talk his best friend for months, you're quite friendly
Gatra
Plus, you've bullied me
Johan
Oh, man! Are you serious?
Johan
Is there a "too much" for friendliness? Come on! Are you still mad at me?
Johan
I know I do bad shit. But now I'm different. I'm mature
Johan
What, you don't believe me?
Johan
I know. I know. Stupid me. It's your choice
Johan
But if you want to talk to me, or make up our friendship, the door's alway open
