846

Overhearing this conversation, of some guy on a phone outside my office:

"Yo, reading the bible is mad fun, dog. Sometime we read it at the beach, and sometimes we just go wherever and read it. Like whatever, bra."
Pause.
"Nah, man, I won't be mad or nothing if you don't want to come."
Pause.
"We shoot for a commitment man, that's all. It'll be your fall."
Pause.
"We're all here cause our parents DON'T go to church, that's THEIR problem."
Pause.
"Well, how DO you use the bible?"
Pause.
"Do you have a cheerful heart?"
Pause.
"You don't have a problem. Things are looking up for you. But you should come. Later."
Click.
