There isn’t much time
“He wants to see you.”
“How nice for him.”
“He’s dying. Your friend is dying and there isn’t much time.”
“I don’t know what he was, but it wasn’t my friend.”
“Figure out your poor little hurt feelings later. He’s dying now. And spare me the bullshit about how you don’t care because if you didn’t care, you’d have no reason to avoid him.”
“Touché.”
