on hindsight, maybe i should have fork-fed him

last saturday, after the movie, we all went for coffee.

as to be expected, the movie was discussed and edward said he thought alex gave in too quickly to which i argued that i think the story flow was just right.

anyway as the night slipped into the wee hours of the morning both edward and jacob would take turns trying to annoy me. and at some point i threatened to poke them with my fork. to which jacob said, "oh i thought you were going to feed me that sandwich." and to which edward reacted, "oh, that would be interesting, why don't you do it and i'll take a photo."

i didn't, of course. because i didn't want to play into their tricks. but on hindsight maybe i should have. just to see how the story will twist from there.

jacob threatened to poke my bruises a lot of times (practice had my right arm battered badly). and then edward said at some point : "you know why he's so mean to you?" with that naughty gleam in his eyes, "you remember what the movie said about why guys are mean to you?"

i kicked him under the table.

when jacob dropped me off i didn't get out of the car immediately. somehow he picked that moment to start off another conversation topic. typical. usual. (and i'm being gigi, as usual, reading tons into the simplest of details.)

sunday afternoon jacob messaged something about an anime he knows i watch. wasn't really expecting him to message at all, although i was hoping. and he did. and there was actually not much reason for him to message. i mean, the only purpose it achieved was to establish a connection for that day. which of course made me happy.

when we were at the movie house jacob kept on talking to me throughout the movie. asking about my schedule for the week, asking after the home theater he fixed, asking about minor details in the movie.

and when ururu and i offered up our little candy tins, jacob picked from mine.

jacob has been using my cat mogg to strike up conversation trails lately, among other things.
