Three AM

by Arden Ranger

Do you have any idea what time it is?

Oh, you need me again, do you?

What is it this time?

She left you, again, didn't she?

I told you. Didn't I tell you?

What the hell does that mean?

Of course I care about you.

I'm still here, aren't I?

Aren't I always?

Is it my fault you pick the wrong women?

Yes, you do.

You wouldn't know the right woman if she bit you on the nose.

I just know.

Because you're looking in the wrong places.

You need a keeper.

I am not making light of your pain. In fact, I understand your pain.

More than you know.

Because I'm a woman.

It is not a superior attitude.

(Sigh)

Yes, I'm still here.

Aren’t I always?
