"you're going to forgive me? just like that?"

"yes."

"but why? after all the things i did to you."

"the same reason you forgave nishi. isn't it obvious? because i love you a little too much, ira. i don't think i can bear you kissing anyone else, except me. you're not the only one who can be selfish here, sweetheart."

"why me? nishi is in love with you, you realize that? and she is a whole lot prettier."

"nishi is not the one who cracks me up with her incessant rambling, ira. she isn't the one whose cheeks turn into two bright red tomatoes whenever i bombard her with sexual innuendos. she isn't the one who pretends to be indifferent towards my cats but secretly squeezes the life out of them while i'm not looking. and most importantly, it is not her face i picture whilst wanking off."

"adrian!"

"well, it's true."
