Guy Pact! ...in 12 lines

Two Buddies over Beers

"I quit, Bob! Ya wine 'em, ya dine 'em, they dump ya! Never no-more!"

~

"Quit whinin', Troy. There's a hottie with her friends at the next table givin' you the eye."

~

"Nope, I'm done! Done, done, done! Ya gonna support me, Bob? Guy Pact?!"

~

" ... Sure, if that's what you want, buddy. Guy Pact!"

~

They knock knuckles, grasp hands. "Ooh Hah!"

~

The hottie comes over. "Couldn't help seein' that, guys," she says to Troy. "What was it?"

~

"Guy Pact! No more girls for me 'n Bob. Never-no-more."

~

"Cool. Just like our girls' Gal Pact. We lock pinkies." She looks at Bob. "You in on it?"

~

"Yes, of course I am. Me 'n Troy knuckle-fisted."

~

"How 'bout you call Exception!, Bob, and come on over to my table?"

~

Troy glares at Bob. Bob looks down. The hottie turns to leave

~

"Exception!" calls Troy.

There is always an exception!! even though you make a pact NOT to do something, it always happens, one or the other gives in...that's just human nature i guess! Very clever piece, I enjoyed the humor and the message!
Warmly, B

[JD Major]
