“So bro, you sounded kind of agitated over the phone, is everything okay?” Simo asks Mlu who is sitting down quietly in the sofa, staring at the TV but not really paying attention to what’s playing Simo gives him a beer and then sits on the other sofa, waiting for his friend to respond. But Mlu takes the beer and has a sip but still not saying anything.
“Hey man,” Simo says to him as he snaps fingers to get his attention. “What’s going on?” at that, Mlu snaps back to earth and looks at Simo. He sighs and puts his beer on the table. He looks at the ceiling as if he’s wondering how to begin. But Simo is just looking at him and waiting because, more the silence the more he’s curious about what happened to his friend. But Simo gets up and goes by the window and looks outside.
