Him: “You abuse so easily sometimes it surprises me. Good luck with everything.”
Her: “I say what I think and how I feel based on what has happened. If you can call that abuse, then it is sad that I too, am surprised by the abuse you have wrought against me.”

Standing on the corner he gestures behind him, “This place was closed and I was looking for a place for a pint. Standing outside of somewhere, I was smoking and this kid comes up and asks for a smoke. By rule, I always say no. So I said no to him. He walks away but comes up to me again and tries to tell me that the smoke is really for his friend.”
“Of course it is,” she shakes her head and half-laughs.

Him: “Asking for confidance isn’t a crime. You paint with only the colours you choose, ignoring all others. The abuse is acting like my requests are inane or unfounded. Anyway, said my piece. Best of luck.”

“I told him no again. And you know what he said then? This thin as a rail kid with a skateboard? He said: ‘You could have at least told me to go fuck myself because then I’d have a reason to kill you.’”
“Oooohooooly shit. He didn’t!”
“He did.” He lights his cigarette again, it having died during the story. “So I said,” he straightens his back and reenacts his tone to her, “Listen, kid. Do you know who you’re talking to? I could have you on the ground and hit eighteen times before you even know it. Do you know who you’re fucking talking to?”
“Ha! What’d he do?”
“He turned to the couple near us and said: ‘I don’t know what his problem is. All I asked him for was a smoke.’” He throws his head back in exasperation.
She shakes her head, “Christ. Typical. ‘I didn’t do anything to deserve this!’ That’s so idiotic. He does something so out of line and then tries to play the victim card to cover it up.”

Her: “If you can’t be honest with ______, or anyone for that matter, regarding your actions, that makes those actions disrespectful to not only them but myself. Your asking for confidence is abuse of anything we ever had. I am not responsible for your lies.”
Him: “Noted.”
