Part of Pupola’s 5 Day Visit of Never One’s Characters
Pupola: Today, I’m going to interview—
Chuck: I’m Burgundy’s best guy friend not the other guy friend. Just making that clear.
Pupola: Okay. I’m glad you’re here. Didn’t know if a slice of tiramisu would work.
Chuck: It’s a good trade.
Pupola: What is the meaning of life?
Chuck: Live it.
Pupola: For many others, there’s more to the question.
Chuck: Meh.
Pupola: You said ‘meh’.
Chuck: Meh.
Pupola: Fine. Which number 3 or 5?
Chuck: 13.
Pupola: *makes a face* Ugh. Swimming pool or beach.
Chuck: Beach Party! Wooo!
Pupola: I like that. Can I come?
Chuck: No adults.
Pupola: Meh. *laughs* Here comes the difficult questions.
Chuck: Sure.
Pupola: *clears throats* Tell me an embarrassing moment?
Chuck: Taking a bribe to eat tiramisu for an interview.
Pupola: Hey! You said that was a good trade.
Chuck: Still doesn’t make it less embarrassing.
Pupola: Moving on…What deep secret you are holding like for someone? Those are the juiciest ones.
Chuck: *just stares at the wall in front of him*
Pupola: You could say ‘no comment’.
Chuck: I wouldn’t be much of a good person if I say that.
Pupola: Fine. This is more pointed at you. You were pretty adamant about being Burgundy’s best guy friend. Do you have more than a friend feeling? Possibly romantic?
Chuck: What! *stands abruptly from his seat and then sits back down* There’s Sss—never mind.
Pupola: Who’s S?
Chuck: No comment. I’m done. *walks out and leaves*
Pupola: Oops, looks like I hit a nerve. Sorry for the short end of the interview. Till Thursday.
Never One
