et tu.

Are you still sure?
No, not really. Not anymore.
What's changed?
Well, I'm not too sure myself. Fear perhaps?
Fear of?
Of watching it fall like a stack of cards. Break like fragile things. Take your pick.
Must you always look at things this way?
Maybe. Sometimes. Mostly. But there are times you get a creeping feeling you can't shake.
And so you think you're part of a game?
Perhaps. It doesn't sound as nice when you put it that way. Or mature. Or sensible.
No, it never does when you sound it out.
Bugger.
So what is it that troubles you?
People. That you can hardly trust most of them anyway. And even the best ones can lie to you, and sometimes you'll never know till it's too late.
It sounds like you have some issues with trust.
Really? I always thought I just never got along well with the rest of them people.
You know, the simple truth is that things don't always work out. But life goes on.
Amen. And that's what I'm worried about. That I'll lose interest in going on. Doc, I just want things to be better.
I'm afraid that's not always possible.
Yes, I was afraid of that.
