Subject: From the Slopes to “Living with a Hernia”
Hey Nelly,
I used to be pretty damn good at skiing—black diamonds, moguls, carving through fresh powder like a pro. But now? Let’s just say life has a sense of humor. Now I’m living with a hernia, just like that Weird Al Yankovic song. Not exactly the Olympic comeback story I had in mind.
Anyway, I’ll be on the lookout for you this Thursday, February 13th. No pressure, no expectations—just hoping to cross paths. Maybe the universe will align.
Stay golden,
Joe
Scene: Tia Maria’s Home – Late Night
Nelly sits on her couch, scrolling through her fan forum when she sees Joe’s post. She sighs, a small smile forming as a blush creeps across her cheeks. She bites her lip, reading his words again.
Nelly (softly, to herself):
“Maybe… maybe I will get that Valentine’s Day date after all.”
She leans back, staring at the ceiling, lost in thought. For once, the idea doesn’t seem so bad. Maybe Joe is different. Maybe he actually understands.
The glow of the screen lingers as she hesitates, fingers hovering over the keyboard. Then, with a deep breath, she starts typing a reply…
FADE TO BLACK.
Water is turning blood red in:
Argentina, Australia, Japan and Iran. If you are there on Thursday it will be 2 people vs the Apocalypse, not just me.
