《Quem Ri Por Último Ri Melhor》CAPÍTULO OITO - DIA ANTERIOR AO BAILE
Advertisement
-Maaaaaaaaae! – Eu gritei assim que cheguei da escola, junto com Vic.
Era sexta, o dia anterior ao baile, e eu estava cada vez mais ansioso.
Minha mãe veio correndo até mim, desesperada.
-Por Deus, Matthew! O que foi?
-Desculpa por te assustar – eu ri. – Preciso de um blazer. A senhora pode me ajudar a conseguir um?
-Um blazer? Pra quê? – Ela perguntou, desconfiada.
-Matt resolveu ir ao baile – Victoria disse, subindo as escadas.
-Sério, meu filho? Que ótimo! Fico muito feliz. Vamos à tarde no shopping ver o que conseguimos para você, tudo bem? – Mamãe disse, com um sorriso no rosto.
Assenti e subi para meu quarto. Me joguei na cama, como sempre faço quando chego da escola e olhei novamente para minha Liz de papel colada no teto do quarto. Então eu falei em voz alta:
-Não importa o que aconteça amanhã, eu vou beijar você.
Desci as escadas, almocei e lá pelas 14 horas fui com a minha mãe para o shopping. Fomos em várias lojas, pois minha mãe queria comprar um terno completo para mim, mas eu só queria o blazer, até que encontramos um blazer cinza que me agradou muito. O compramos, e minha mãe me convenceu a lhe deixar me dar uma camisa. Escolhemos uma camisa branca com detalhes pretos e por fim voltamos para casa.
Mostrei para Vic o que tinha comprado e ela amou, disse que eu tinha um bom gosto, que não refletia o que eu usava no dia a dia. Dei uma risada irônica e entrei em meu quarto. Ali passei o resto do dia, pensando no que o próximo dia me reservava. Abri o celular mais uma vez, dessa vez não para olhar fotos de Liz, mas para escrever algo, talvez uma declaração para dizer amanhã.

Escrevi o seguinte:
"Quando te vejo, meus olhos se iluminam, minha boca seca, minhas mãos ficam trêmulas e suadas. Você é o meu sol, minha luz no meio da escuridão. Apesar de não falar comigo, você é meu chão, meu abrigo, meu teto. Eu quero muito você, quero você na minha vida,sendo minha e somente minha. Quem diria que o velho Matthew aqui seria capaz de dizer isso a uma garota um dia. Mas você sabe como é Liz, o amor tem a capacidade de tornar qualquer homem um poeta."

Dip$h!+s in Space
An eccentric comedy novel (that thinks it's a TV show) about space, and the Dipsh!+s that end up stranded in it. This hyper-self-aware comedy of stupid proportions, centers around Captain William T Lawg (no relation) and his adventures as a guy who managed to afford a refitted soft-top ice-cream truck, in space. Explore the universe with his trusty crew of valiant randos. Marley, the tech-bro, stoner spacebunny, who just wants to get away from his home world and the bullies it harbors. Duffy, the plump and sassy female mechanic, who has had every job in existence totaling far more years than possible. Roy, the frigging fabulous, flamboyant android, and former spy…or possibly current spy. (dun dun, daaaa!) And lastly, but certainly leastly, that other chick the captain keeps trying to bang. Ride with the crew of the notorious Tast-E-Chill, to a world of wonder that a lot of other space travelers have already been before, but probably not Lawg, so it's still exciting. This satirical joke on itself and every sci-fi trope ever to exist, will be sure to either thrill you or disappoint you, because COMEDY…IS…SUBJECTIVE! With a crew of 3-10 and an IQ of also probably 3-10, The captain putters along to uncharted lands, where history, loot, drama, innuendos of the sexual verity, and various Technicolor hoes shall surely be waiting, usually with some form of trap. Each season brings new and interesting crewmen, like: Menace: the adorable genderless frog-child-thing with the heart of gold and the dialogue vocabulary of a slightly trained parrot. Greg: the 8 foot tall, ancient, thermonuclear, semi-retired alien overlord who just wants to prove he still has a purpose…and also to rule the galaxy. Izzy: a 3rd generation, age-reversed reboot, accidental clone of her own mother/sister/older self, who happens to be Greg's daughter-in-law…and much, much more. Prepare yourself for shallow adventure, moderately-to high offensive dialogue, and overwhelmingly childish scenarios. Tag along as the crew battles, fierce enemies, lack of food and survival tape, and occasionally their own incompetence. Teen Romance, current politics, subtlety, dignity, this sucker has none of those, and it darn well knows it. Raise the sails and grab the rails as a bunch of dipsh!+s find themselves...IN SPACE. (Roll dramatic tapering credits, to royalty free trumpet music)
