Out of the Blue

Manny called last night, out of the blue.

"Hi Chris, it's me Manny. I don't think we have seen each other for five years, but I broke up with my partner two weeks ago and I thought I'd give you a call, it's a shame you aren't home. I went to your office, but they said you'd left. I'll give you another call later."

Really? I thought.

After five years, it's me you give a call?

You remember my number? because I don't remember  yours.

I've moved on, Manny, really, and I don't want to see you. Would that be too cruel to say to someone?

I guess we should be able to be friends, but I don't really want to be. Have a nice life Manny, you are a sweet boy and I hope you find happiness.
