Parker:And…

Omar:More.

There. I said it. Kind of.

Parker:To the body?

Parker:That’s kinda fucked up, man.

Omar:NO!

Omar:What is wrong with you?

Parker:Nothing. Sorry. Continue.

I pause, feeling royally stupid.

Omar:We were actually having a nice moment…

Omar:He introduced me to Beaver Nuggets.

Omar:It was…charming.

Parker:WAIT A DING DANG MINUTE!

Parker:You went to Buc-ee’s and didn’t invite meeeee?

Parker:You better bring me a bag of those nuggets.

Omar:I think we’ve gone off topic somehow.

Parker:Sorry, it’s possible that this isn’t my first bottle of wine.

Parker:You were saying that he was being charming and that’s confusing.

Parker:Continue…

Omar:We seemed to be doing OK and then he went and struck a nerve.

Parker:On brand. What’d he do?

Omar:He’s sniffing around my sexuality, and it brought up a situation in my past that is a bad, bad memory.

Parker:Like a trigger?

Sigh.

Omar:I hate that word.

Parker:I’m sorry.

Omar:It’s just…he gets under my skin. So. Much.

Omar:But then he apologized. And it was…disarming.

Omar:I liked it.

Parker:But he’s apologizing because once again he’s tripped on another landmine.
