— Excuse me.
— Hi
— I'm trying to relax. Would you mind?
— Oh, sorry, Mister.
— Hey kid, kid, kid, just come over here and sit down, would you?
— Okay. What's your name, Mister? My name is Adam. You look like my grandpa, except he's not as old.
— That's very rude.
— I'm Adam. Who are you?
— Joseph. Where's your mother?
— She's with her boyfriend. I'm supposed to wait over here. I'm 8 and 3/4, Mister. How old are you? ... Mister, You're boring.
— Hey, listen kid, I'd like some peace and quiet, please.
— You're grumpy, Mister. Is that why that woman left you on the bench? Was she your girlfriend?
— No. no, she wasn't. Listen, um...
— I have a girlfriend, Mister, and I'm only in the second grade. Where's your girlfriend?
— My wife, Elizabeth, is gone.
— Well, where has she gone to?
— She's gone... gone. Dead.
— Oh, that's sad. Well, my girlfriend Katie, she's still really young. Was she a good girlfriend? Katie's the best I've had.
— Yes, Elizabeth was one of a kind.
— Why? Have you ever had any other girlfriends? Yesterday, I brought Katie a flower, and she gave me a kiss on the cheek. Have you ever brought a girl a flower?
— Kid, you've got a lot to learn about relationships. Have you ever looked into someone's eyes and had a whole conversation in an instant? Laughed with someone, kept laughing until you even forgot why you were laughing? Have you ever cried?
— I cried last night when I said goodbye to Katie, but that was 'cause I had scraped my knee badly.
— Ha ha ha
— Mister?
— Yes?
— Are you going to get a new girlfriend for all those things?
— No, I'm happy just by myself.
— I think you're grumpy.
— Ha ha.
— I have lots of girlfriends, Mister. Over six!
— Lizzie was my one and only.
— You talk about your girlfriend a lot.
— My wife.
— I love getting girlfriends, Mister. You should try it.
— There's not enough time left for me for those kind of shenanigans. Plus, I thought I was a boring, grumpy old guy?
— Nah, you're nice. Well, once you stopped reading. See that pretty girl over there? I'm about to get a new girlfriend in 10 seconds. There's always time. Got to go, Mister. Bye!
— Bye.
— Nice day, isn’t it?
— Yeah, it's beautiful. Really enjoy the park.
