that is the name jess and i have decided to give this little chain of events. or, if you're a snicket fan, a series of unfortunate events.
so, he calls me, right? and as soon as i hear his voice i start to cry. and i'm thinking "you can't do this to me" for the first five minutes. so, i told him about the incosenquential conversation he had with joe. and asked him if it happened. and he said "yeah dude." so, i told him joe called me afterwards. and how angry he was. and how i was sobbing violently and upset. and about how upset joe was. and he can't believe that we cared that much to get that upset over it. he thinks it's something in the water.
so then we talked about his dad. and about how he should stand up to his dad because he was mizerablé and should tell his dad that he doesn't want his life to begin and end at the stupid bamboo hut. and then. he says that's not what's happening. that his dad asks him to work and if he doesn't have anything to do he works. form open until close. and it's just crap that we thought that.
so tim really thinks that we're all insane. that he can't believe we'd think that. that we'd all get so upset over that. so, what i told him was that, since he said all i had to do was ask and he'd tell me, i asked him why he wanted to fade away in the first place. i was asking, so he had to tell me. i was yelling and slammed my water bottle. and the brilliant answer "i felt like you guys didn't need me and were better off without me". so, i asked him if he understood how wrong he was. that we obviously needed and cared for him. and he siad "i can't believe you guys are so stupid."
so, through tears i yelled "i'll appologize on behalf of us all then tim. i'm sorry that we care and we love you and need you and worry about you. there. does that make the situation any better?" and he jokingly answers "yeah, i think so." i told him it wasn't funny. he told me he loved me and he missed me and how he was sorry and couldn't believe that all of that had transpired in almost TWO MONTHS. i told him never to do it again. that it wasn't fair and wasn't funny.
so, he wants to spend sunday with joe jess and i. joe gets back saturday morning. tomorrow, after school, joe jess and i are hanging out. i'll talk to joe about it then. who knows, something interesting might happen. now there's five in the family if paul wants to play. yay for drama!
