one more scroll with

the thumb on the

screen

reveals an ad

with a message that

reads

YOUR DREAM COMING TRUE

He immediately

skips it

but the mind

dwells on it

a bit longer

Dream come true?

People should stop

associating

the achievement of dreams

with happiness

It’s rarely, if ever, the same

thing

He repeats this to

himself and feels like

some philosopher or something

as he lies in bed

and takes his eyes

from the phone screen

to look across the room

at the desk where

his girlfriend plays some stupid

video game on the PC

She’s got headphones on

and the mic activated

She’s got it

all

Spiky

green hair, gothic makeup,

piercings in ears, nose, lips,

tongue, brow, navel, nipples,

socks with cat paws at the feet, a

six-pack of white Monster

by her side

and of course

attitude

“Aaah! I really, really hope your

first child fucking dies!” she

screams at the top of

her lungs

into the mic. Obviously addressing

some player in her game.

“Yeah! You heard me! I hope your

child fucking dies and you bury

it so I could go and

dig it the fuck up. Yeah! I’d

bring it home

and shit down its sorry little

throat and then inject my piss

into its little dick hole with a

syringe. And then I’d put a fucking

iron rod through its anus

and see it come out through

the mouth

and roast it like a fucking rotisserie

chicken with a flame torch,

and then film myself while I

fucking eat it!

I’d send you clips every day, fucker!

Every fucking day! You hear me!?”

Yep, that

attitude…

“Achieving your dreams

does not

necessarily bring

happiness,” he says

aloud from the

bed

but she doesn’t hear him
