Chastised by a Tree

You've been avoiding me.
No I haven't.
Yes, You have.
Well I didn't mean to.
Ok. At least you admit it. You're not admitting a hell of a lot lately, are you?
No, I'm not. I don't want to. I'm having issues. It's my own business.
But people are worried. Doesn't that bother you at all.
No.
Not at all?
Well...
I knew you'd see it my way.
Shut your trap.
Nice way to talk to a tree. What are they teaching you in that Bio Class?
I didn't come here to get backtalk.
Yes you did. You come here to get some blunt honesty.
Maybe I should leave.
No, I don't think so. You drove down here for a reason. You wanted my opinion, and I'll give it to you.
Great... advice from a tree.
You bet your bushes!
Huh?
Never mind, tree humor.
Oh.
Anyway, you need to deal with it and give in and ask for help. You need to be honest with your roommate. She cares, you know that.
I just don't know how to bring it up. It's not exactly your average conversation. "Yes, by the way Jessie. I believe I need to start taking psycho-active drugs and undergo talk therapy."
Well, that would be a start wouldn't it?
Grrrrrr....
Don't "Grrr" at me. That Jessie... she's influencing you. You never would have growled at me last summer.
You just didn't piss me off last summer.
You didn't need me to.
You're right.
Now eat your chicken nuggets, drink your coffee and go back and talk to your roommate.
G'night Harvey.
rewind - fast forward
