Unrequited Love Monologue

Improved Essays
- Angela. The girl from last night.
- Are you crazy? She's my brother's girlfriend!

So?

You light up like a birthday cake around her.
I've never seen you like that.

You're insane. I'd never go for her.
It'd be wrong!

- That's just crazy.
- You don't get to choose who your muse is.

- The connection just happens.
- But Angela? Come on!

Sometimes the most inappropriate relationships...

are the ones that inspire us the most. You know what they say about unrequited love.

Stop right there!
You're totally getting carried away.

Deny it all you want, but from what I've seen, that girl brings out the best in you.

Deny it all you want, but from what I've seen, that girl brings out the best in you.

Look how empty it is - not even one customer.

Trust me.

So when will you find a girlfriend, or is she already in the picture?

- What?
- The lady from last night. Eve, right?

We...

kind of had a fling, but it didn't work out.

So she's not the one who'll tame the wild animal in you.

- I'm a lone wolf and that's the way I like it.
- If you say so.

Thanks for the compliment.

Ndicela...

Ndicela...

Ndi-ce-la...

Ndi-ce-la.

- What? I clicked my tongue.
- The wrong way.

There's a right and a wrong way to click your tongue?

There are three different kinds of clicks.
The letter 'c', which sounds like...

Okay. Try 'x'.
Maybe it'll be easier for you.

- Come on. It's not that hard.
- Easy for you to say.

- You've been doing it since you were a kid.
- Then you'll struggle with this one.

The letter 'q'.

- I'll never get this right.
- It's okay.

- I don't mind if you don't speak my language.
- But I want to.

Why don't I teach you a few sayings to use on my mother when she's giving you grief?

Like?

Andiqondi?

- Which means?
- I don't understand.

Or 'uyanuka'.
It means you smell.

There is something
I'd like you to teach me...

how to say...

'I love you'.

Ndi-ya...

ku-tha-nda.

Ndi-ya-ku...

tha-nda.

Perfect.

Just like you.

Marry
…show more content…
You're everything I want in a person, and...

Yes! Yes!

Yes, you crazy man!
I'd love to marry you!

I asked you a question.

- Tshidi?
- What?

What did Bab'Msibi say?
You haven't said a word since yesterday.

I'm trying to compile a report for a client!

I just want to know what he said.

Your behaviour last night was...
It didn't seem normal.

I just want to understand what's going on!
You said we're in this together.

Mamlambo is my business, not yours.
So don't worry about it.

I took this on, so it's my duty to feed it and take care of its needs.

- What do you mean 'its needs'?
- It's like a relationship.

You must get to know the other person to understand what they expect from you.

- What they expect? It's a snake!
- I know that!

This is weird for me too, but that's how it is.

So back off and let me do what needs to be

    It’s been a day or two since we’ve left this room. I’m lost and enraptured by the fragility surrounding our isolation. I spend much of my time counting things. I count the slats on your window blinds, I count the clothes scattered on your bedroom floor, I count the scars on your body. I count every different language and color I could learn to love you in.…

    Hippocampus Obviously, when I hear the term, hippocampus, I think of hippopotami! I think of a college campus full of them roaming about.

    “Scratcher!” they yelled, “You’re an African booty scratcher!” I shook my head furiously desperate to empty my mind of their scornful words.

    Unrequited love is like a bee sting. While you are enjoying your time, in the midst of nature, channeling through the flowers and plants, seeing the beauty circling around you. Although, nature doesn’t have a mutual connection with you. Nature contains bees which can "hurt" you. A bee sting is simple and petite yet it's nature's way of expressing how it feels about you which is how you may enjoy or love nature but it doesn't act the same.…
