Party

Stop.
Rewind.
One more time.

What did she say?

Was my eye twitching?!
Is that his name?
Kevin?
Did I laugh enough?

Wait one sec.

Pause.
Replay.
Take that back.
Did I offend?
Oh no. How could I forget:
Her sister's a producer there!

I love circuses. They’re my favorite!

Oh wow… I seem too excited.

Scratch that.
Never said it.
Sorry.
Meant something else.

Did I smile right?

Laugh enough?
Did I mention her and that thing that I should remember?
That thing, oh jeez, about that guy. That guy.
Was that his name?
Was it her or him that said that about him or her?
Wait.
Playback.
Sorry.

I'm a fool,
A stupid, bumbling fool.

Oops.
So sorry.
Say again.
The music
It’s just
A tad too loud.

I'm glad I left.

Did I say goodbye?
Did I kiss him on both cheeks?
I hope
I did.
I kissed.
I talked.
Did I offend?
I hope that is his name?
