‘A conversation I won’t forget’
(Characters- Future me and Past me)
Past me: “Are you my look-alike? But you seem a little older than me…”
Future me: “I am your future self.”
Past me: (Astonished) “This must be one of those weird dreams I can’t comprehend.”
Future me: “This is not a dream. I am real. I got here by time machine.”
Past me: “Woah, that’s so cool! I want to time travel too.”
Future me: “Yeah, you will because I am...”
Past me: “What brings you here? Is it a deep yearning to be young again?”
Future me: “Wait a minute. What makes you think that I’m old? I’m 22 and it’s you who’re a tiny kid.”
Past me: “I’m not a tiny kid. Anyways, why have you come here to bother me?”
Future me: “(laughing) Oh! I used to be such a hot head. Well, what was I saying?”
Past me: You’re so forgetful.
Future me: “As if you aren’t.
Past me: “That’s true. But I thought I would change.”
Future me: “Change can’t happen just like that. Have you worked for it?”
Past me: “Hmmm…You are preachy.”
Future me: “I have every right to be.”
Past me: “I wouldn’t want to grow up to be like you. No offense.”
Future me: “None taken. Now I pity our parents.”
Past me: “Why?”
Future me: “It must be difficult to deal with your tantrums.”
Past me: “You are bossy. That makes me wonder how your boss tolerates you.”
Future me: “I am a boss myself.”
Past me: “Oh! What is your job?”
Future me: “I can’t disclose that.”
Past me: “Which college did you get into?”
Future me: “Confidential.”
Past me: “Please! I am dying to know.”
Future me: “Would there be any fun in life if you knew everything?”
Past me: (thinking) “I don’t reckon that there would be.”
Future me: “That was what I want you to know.”
Past me: “Last question-Do you have a boyfriend…Is he nice?”
Future me: “(blushing) Well, you won't budge after all...’”
Past me: “Hey, you are fading!”
Future me: “Oh no, I'm running out of time...But you’ll know someday.”
Past me: “I hope so. Any advice? You won't run short of that, will you?”
Future me: (laughing)“Work hard and you’ll achieve what you want. That's cliched, isn't it?”
Past me: “It is. ”
Future me: “ But there must be some truth in it. Au revoir!”
Past me: “Oh, Bye! I would be able to speak French!”
Future me: “If you start learning it now!”
Past me: “I think I'll try.”
Future me: “ Très Bien!”
