Valentine Blues - Season 1 - Episode 19

*****
Cupid who has been watching exclaims his frustration ” ARRGHHHHHHH THE HELLLL! WHAT KIND OF SLOW HUMANS ARE THESE… WHYYYYY!!’ ‘ He covers his face with both hands as he sobs. ”After going through the process of bringing them together and hoping forever happens from today, they go and… how the hell are they going to go on a date when they can’t communicate and..”.. he pauses as he thinks of something. ”Silly me Cupid” He hits his head as He brings out an arrow, sprinkles something on it and then shoots it after saying ”Be creative Tonia, you aren’t crazy for nothing” he snickers as he watches it sink down, landing on their roof, sinking below and hovering over her head before it evaporates.

*****

Darren hits Tom’s hand away the third time, Tom places his hands on Darren’s nose again and pulls it. Darren hits it away again. Tom reaches for his ears and pats his cheeks, Darren pulls Tom’s ears too.

”Can’t even get a number” Tom says every time he touches Darren and pokes him.
”I forgot!” Darren hits his hands away.
”Only kids forget!” He slaps Darren’s face playfully, Darren hits his hands away again.
”Dude, humans forget and I am one”
”You are slow human, we should deport you”

”To where?”
”The land of forgetting to ask for the most important detail to take someone on a date” Now he pokes Darren’s side.
”Hey… you won’t let this go will you?” Darren blocks his hands again from his face.
”Not until you think of how to rectify it. I won’t have you mopping at an empty house and act like you aren’t lonely”
”How, I can’t rectify it because I don’t have her number”
”Exactly, Mr -Forgot -to -take -her-number !” he pokes him again.
”Arrgh Tom I will plug out your eyes” Darren threatens.
”It will hunt you at night” Tom chuckles poking him again.

She whistles to get their attention.
”Oh don’t worry, I will just call her and ask her for her number” Tonia who has been watching the men bicker about why he forgot to take the number of his date said.
They stop bickering and hitting each other and turns to her ”See, my wife has sense, creative sense. ” Tom points to his wife and touches his temple nodding his head right before he slaps Darren playing across his face, Darren heads for him but Tom wraps his hands around Darren’s neck and holds him, he then proceeds to scatter his hair. Darren is laughing because he knows as he is held this way, he can’t move. Tom was bigger and stronger.
”Hey you win you win!”
”Yas!!”‘ Tom lets him go and then raises two hands in the air in victory ”I always win, Tom Tom Tom!!” he chants his name.
”Vain!” Darren says arranging his hair.
”Sssshh!” Tonia says as she reaches for her phone and dials, then she smiles as it was picked. ”Hi Lucy, I don’t mean to be a bother, my friend is such a klutz, i wonder, is your friend still with you or you separated already?”

*****

Lucy smiles broadly, eyeing Annalisa who is staring at her funny ”What do you know, she is standing right here. Oh, you guys just figured out they didn’t take their numbers right?” Lucy laughs ”I know right? Who asks a girl out and doesn’t take a number, Klutzi tell you. Yes, she is staring at me with those big blue eyes. She is at fault too, I mean if the guy forgot she could offer right? I know. Silly girl. Yes, I should send her back to dating school. hmm hmm, sure, I should give you her number or… yes I think that’s better, let’s have them give it to themselves” she hands her the phone ”better do the needful or i will hunt you for ever” Lucy threatens with a smile.

Annalisa takes the phone ”You wish” she tells her friend as she places it to her ears ”Hello?”

*****

”Here” Tonia stretches her hand to him, he steps forward as Tom nudges him. He takes it to his ears.
”Hello. So..erm…”

*****

Cupid has a large smile on his face as he begins to dance ”Who is the man, who is the man!” he chants.

”You mean who is the midget!” came the voice behind him.

”AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!”‘ He screams.
