aaron x samira

[samira deol]

Sami Nothing, nothing. I just... It was a bad weekend. And truthfully no, I don't have it figured out yet. I know that Ravi isn't the love of my life but I still care for him, it's one of the harder, more complicated parts.

[aaron eklund]

Aaron I'm sorry I've been making this about me. Yeah I know. I wish he was an asshole, it would make things easier. Even I don't hate him. Are you happy? Does he ask you that?

[samira deol]

Sami You're allowed to need or want things too, of course you are. Sorry I just...exploded. He's a nice person, and a good friend. But no - I think we both know we're tiptoeing around some bigger conversations. Even this weekend I could feel it, but not like we could exactly just hash it out then.

[aaron eklund]

Aaron It's ok. You've probably been holding a lot in all weekend. Nobody botherin to ask about you. Who was it who planned this? Didn't seem like your mom.

[samira deol]

Sami His family. I think my mom saw the panic, she kept checking in on me.

[aaron eklund]

Aaron Is she nice to you, you get along?

[samira deol]

Sami I said my mom, not his. But yeah, she's good too. They all are, it's...I can't even say unfortunate.

[aaron eklund]

Aaron I'll blame the dyslexia. Or my eyes are goin bad too. They're just trying to get you moving I guess.

[samira deol]

Sami I asked Ravi if he had anything to do with it and he said no, so. Full outsider interference.

[aaron eklund]

Aaron Does it mean anything to you that he doesn't try to move things forward either?

[samira deol]

Sami He's not the pushy type, but I think about it sometimes too. In the beginning it really was a hectic schedule between work and trying to figure out our lives. Now...I think it's just the easy excuse.

[aaron eklund]

Aaron He'd be an idiot not to want to marry you. I'm sure he's just willing to wait too.

[samira deol]

Sami I guess so. I'll need to ask him, one day.

[aaron eklund]

Aaron It's a two-way street. I don't take that all lightly, by the way. Everything this entails for you. I hate not being able to help, I really do.

[samira deol]

Sami I know you do, truly. You're being really respectful about all of this and it's hard when I don't know what to give to each person. I'm used to fixing things, at work. Not trying to dismantle them.
