Journey - Episode 7

 

Wow, that was intense. Okay. Yeah.  Wait,  I just poured out my entire soul to you and all I get is that was intense? Well,  what else do you want me to say?  If you didn't know how you were going to respond to the answer why ask the question? I asked because I needed to know. Is that a crime. Oh no,  it's not a crime and neither is you acting like everything I just said doesn't matter . You're getting worked up over nothing. Yeah, exactly. I get it now,  I don't really mean anything to you, everything I just said is pointless. Oh sure, please play the victim, you seem really good at it.  Ah... there's the sarcastic queen, I was wondering when she would show up. You know what we're both getting worked up so I think I should just head back to my hostel.  I'll walk you.  You're upset, you don't have to. I said I'll walk you okay?  Don't snap at me, don't you dare,  we may be friends but that doesn't give you any damn right to that.  I am not a child and you're not that older than me so don't ever in your life talk to me like a petulant child.  Oh!  Okay, listen I'm sorry I lost my temper. I mean I brought you up here so we could talk and you can enjoy the view of the hills from up here

. I really didn't mean to upset you. It's alright. Is that Tasha and with Chris, again?  Where?  Down there in front of the cafeteria. Tess you're sisters an adult, she can talk to whoever she wants to. Not to him I don't like him. I'm going down there whether you're coming with me or not.  

Ah, if it isn't the man who gave my sister who's an "expert" at drinking a bottle of spirit. Well, your sister does have a head for alcohol. She's an expert at drinking truly. Oh really, so are you I can see you look absolutely perfect this morning. Have you had a beer?  I heard the perfect way to cure a hangover is to keep on drinking? Chris, please ignore her she's usually nice she's just upset over yesterday. No babe,  I'm not upset besides she's right though, if you wake up with a hangover just grab a beer and you'll be fine. Wow Tash,  you really picked a winner in this one he's extremely stupid. Theresa Belema Johnson that's enough. You know you're sister can be a real bitch. Stupid and rude, just the perfect combination. You know Tess,  you have to stop sometimes or you'll end up alone someday. Don't tell me you're going after him.  I am.  Phillip say something. You're just going to let her leave. Yes,  I'm just going to let her leave and I can't believe that I actually stood here and listened to,  no witnessed that entire embarrassing scene. What, so you think protecting my sister is embarrassing? You're not her mother,  you're her sister, watch out for her, advice her, be there for her, don't bloody act like you gave birth to her. Don't try to control who she talks to, where she goes or she's with because you'll not only push her away, you'll send her straight into his arms. Let her make her mistakes so she can learn. I have no idea why I'm even here talking to you when you never listen.You know what, you want to be alone, fine,  be your solitary sour self. For goodness sakes, my life was simpler before I met you.  Philip,  you're just going to leave me here? Let's talk at least. Talk?  I've been talking, too much it seems. Bye. 

As much as I don't want to talk to you I have to. Oh so after a week you've finally decided to speak to me.  I'm ecstatic. Drop the sarcasm Tess and get your eyes off that book so at least we can talk. Sweetheart, this is Sidney Sheldon,  you're distracting me.  Tasha,  grabbed the book and threw it across the room. Hey what'd you do that for? That book was expensive. Aren't all your books of "great value" to you. Now who's being sarcastic? No who's being stupid? Natasha are you calling me stupid?  Yes I am.  And what do you think gives you the right. Durrh,  I'm your sister, your twin sister. I know you. You just read in the last three days two voluminous novels and you're halfway through the third.  That's after you spent the first few days after our last altercation scowling and spreading your gloominess in this room. If you think I'm going to apologize about Chris or apologize to him. Hold it,  I know you won't apologize for it but I'm like one half of you so I have no choice but to live with and love you no matter how annoying you can be. The one who doesn't deserve to be mistreated is Philip. I didn't mistreat him.  But you didn't trust him or open up to him despite everything he's done to try to win you over. I'm just scared okay besides he barely even looks at me now. I think he hates me.  He's mad but he'll get over it cos I know he likes you but I need you to take a leap of faith.  I don't know, I don't want to end up hurt. Oh baby,  you'll never know if you don't try.  You think I should. No,  I know you need to.
