Gallant

There are two sides to every story.

Mena: Hey Ben? Hey Ben? Hey Ben?

Ben: (Silence)

Mena: Hey Ben? Hey Ben? Hey Ben?

Ben: What? I'm trying to kill these processes.

Mena: (Silence)

Mena: (muttering) Okay. Wait. Exclude? Nevermind. Stupid tag. Nevermind.

Ben: (Silence)

Mena: (muttering) Stupid fucking problem. I'm sure you know the answer but don't want to give me the time of day.

Ben: (Silence)

Mena (still muttering): I hate you. I'll bet if I asked on the support board you'd help me.

Ben: What the hell is wrong with you?

As she jumps out of her chair, Mena picks up a dry-erase marker and pokes Ben with it 3 times.

Ben: Stop it! I'm tryin to get some work done.

Mena: Okay, fucker! We'll draw a line, and no one on either side will talk!!

Ben: (Silence)

Mena: Shut up! You think you're so much smarter than me! You make me feel stupid every time I ask a question! I hate you!

Ben: (Silence)

Mena: (Silence)

Ben: (Silence)

Mena: Hey Ben, look at this! Simplicity now makes a male pilgrim costume pattern.
