-ridin' in my car (open)

[hiroko]

HrO

Ah, well, I'm at least feeling normal. How about the rest of you?

[ruby]

my my my. if it isn't the infamous hiroko ai. glad
you're feeling normal. for once in your life.

[hiroko]

HrO

By normal, I mean I feel like myself, Kiara.

[ruby]

and what does yourself feel like? personally, i
always thought when you were in the chatzy
or with trent or whatever, that's the real you.
there's a side to hiroko that no one knows
about? wow. shocker.

[hiroko]

HrO

Cracked open a psychology book I see. I've never 'been with' Trent in any capacity, we do not talk in person and even then, rarely. I am as I present myself in the Chatzy, there is no difference.

[ruby]

i don't do psychology books. they're a waste of
time. and of course you have. you room with him
don't you? and sure there isn't.

[hiroko]

HrO

He is gone most of the time, to be away from me, of course, and I am in my room much of the time. If you believe there is a difference, there may be, I am prone to mood swings, yes.

[ruby]

oh, i see. and i do believe there is a difference.
everybody always has more than one side to
them. i bet you that underneath all the bitchy
comments or your observations or whatever you
call them, there's a heart. somewhere. nice, hurt
or whatever.

[hiroko]

HrO

Sure, there are times when I am sad, times when I am mad, and even times when I am feeling kind and generous.

[ruby]

well that's expected. you're only human afterall

[hiroko]

HrO

Good job. Give yourself two points, a gold star and a pat on the back.

[ruby]

i will. thanks.

[hiroko]

HrO

And yes, of course I am human, as much as Trent and many others would like to say contrary to the fact.

[ruby]

i know. don't know why they would think that
you're not.

[hiroko]

HrO

It gives a reason for why I'm a bitch, why I do not care about what I say. If I am unemotional, there is no need to solve a deeper puzzle.
