You Did It, Didn't You?

“You really don’t wanna do this, do ya?”

“I didn’t say that.”

“You implied it.”

“Oh yeah? Well then. . .what does implied mean?”

“Oh, nevermind. Just do it.”

“No.”

“Yes.”

“No!”

“Fine. But when I do it, you’ll be wishing you had done it.”

“I bet I won’t.”

“How much?”

“Five bucks.”

“Deal.”

“Deal.”

“So here I go. You sure you don’t wanna do it?”

“Positive. Besides, if I do do it, I won’t get my money.”

“Touche. Ok then, here goes.”

“See ya.”

“On the other side.”

“Ha.”

“There. I did it.”

“Yes you did.”

“Pay up.”

“I still don’t wish I would’ve done it.”

”. . . .”

“The smartest thing you’ve said all day.”

And with that, he walked away.

“Don’t leave me here!”

“Don’t worry, I’ll come back for my money later. . .sometime.”
