Do you know her?
June 19, 2005Mr. N was talking on the phone with a girl who pretended to be someone else with another name. Mr. N. said,”which Layla is this? I don’t think I have a friend named Layla” and then the girl called someone else’s name asking if it was him or not, Mr N. thought that she dialed a wrong number but then they just introduced each other. Mr N. looked questioningly at Mr. U while mr U asked,”what happens? Wrong number?” Mr N laughed and nodded. Mr U took his phone away from him and started talking with this girl while mr N thought Mr U knew this girl. During talking with her on the phone mr U asked what she’s doing, where she lives, etc just because Mr U thought he realised this girl’s voice somewhere. But he became confused when the girl said she’s Layla. But a weirdo like him didn’t bother it and still enjoyed the conversation with this stranger, asking her everything to know her better. Mr N. finally took his phone back and said,”I am sorry, he’s my friend and I dont think I know you with another name Layla, you must have invented the name so that we don’t realise who you are.” I who was sitting behind them have been listening to their conversation.
In the end when we stopped on the small path, Mr. N asked Mr U why he dared to take his phone away from him and talked with that girl.
“She’s my girlfriend!” Mr N said
“she told me her name is Layla!”
“Yes I know she told you that, but she always invents a name just to know where I am and whom I am with!”
Mr U looked at him and said again,”then why did you sound like someone who didn’t know her?”
“I know her! it’s her voice! She’ll ask me till the details when I get back home!”
I joined in and said,”why did she have to invent a name to talk with you? And if she is real your girlfriend you should have realised her voice from the beginning, no matter if she invents other name to you”
“But he took my phone away from me!”
I just couldn’t do anything than listening to their conversation
A couple should realise each other’s voices no matter if one of them invents other name to know what the other is doing. They live together in a big house but don’t seem to know each other better and the girl doesn’t seem to believe him at all. But I, as someone who was present at that time knew what he did, drinking beer and smoking hash. Although I knew he was not with another girl, I could imagine what she’s thinking about that time and why she didn’t believe him. He came home only to take few bottles of beers, stepped into his car again and went away. He’s such a hard driver and from the happening, if someone else saw what he did, someone could expect a crazy things done by someone like him and I think it’s why she invented other name. Maybe he’s already disbelieved. But on the other side I am thinking why oh why. They live together, mind you. They see each other every single day, every night. Isn’t that enough to know each other, or at least, to realise each other’s voices?
And I compare this happening to my life. If they dont know each other better, what am I to think she’s … with me? I am not sure about myself. what are you doing when you are not able to get something? :(


I actually wonder how long such a relationship can last. If you cannot trust each other in a relationship and don’t know your partner it cannot be a very happy relationship then…at least in my opinion.
