Elliott

Ah, ang bagong magsasaka na inaasahan nating lahat... at ang pagdating niya ay nakapukaw ng maraming usapan! Ako si Elliott... Nakatira ako sa maliit na cabin sa tabi ng dalampasigan. Ikinagagalak kitang makilala.

Elliott: I'm kind of new to this town myself, but I really feel at home. I moved here only a year before you.
You: Hi, Elliott!
Elliott: Hello, You. Are you well?
Elliott: Sometimes I wonder if I might just have an inflated self-image and no real skills... No, no... I'm not fishing for compliments. Though they are appreciated...
You: Hey Elliott!
Elliott: Oh, You! I was hoping you'd show up. It's always a pleasure to see you.
Elliott: Sorry, I'm feeling morose today. I wish there was more certainty about the future. I don't want to grow old as a lonely hermit on this beach...
You: what’s wrong, Elliott?
Elliott: It's a little lonely out here on the beach... so I apologize if I was ever a little too forward with you when we first met. I was just eager to have a friend. It feels good to have a close friend like you.
Elliott: I write in hopes of connecting with others through time and space. sigh...times are changing, though. People don't read anymore.
Elliott: You, I know you have faith in my abilities as a writer. That means a lot to me.
You: Hey Elliott.
Elliott: You, I was just thinking about you. Maybe you sensed it. So! Tell me about your day.
Elliott: Oh dear! A tiny crab appears to have made his home in my shirt pocket. That's the trouble with living on the beach.
Elliott: My legs are stiff from sitting at my writing desk all night. Sometimes I envy you, You.
Elliott: You, when you're around...I feel unusually creative. I know... strange, but it's true.
Elliott: I have to remember to water my plants today. And not with sea water this time!
Elliott: I wouldn't mind trying my hand at farming. The quiet atmosphere of a farm might be a good source of literary inspiration, don't you think?
Elliott: Breathe deeply. Do you notice it? That's the smell of the sea. Whenever I smell the sea, it reminds me of my youth. The ocean really impressed me as a child.
Elliott: Go away. I can't bear to see you.
You: I'm really sorry... Can you ever forgive me?
Elliott: You've hurt me beyond measure... but I'm willing to leave the past behind us.
Elliott: I've been taking much better care of myself now that we're together. The bachelor life wasn't particularly healthy for me.
Elliott: I've had this recurring nightmare that you gave me a buzz cut... you wouldn't ever do that to me, would you? I trust you.
Elliott: Today is going to be a fantastic day... I can feel it! I get this special feeling in my nose...
Elliott: If I stay perfectly still, perhaps a resplendent butterfly will bless my nose with a landing.
Elliott: Ah, what a lovely day to read a book...don't you think, my dear?
Elliott: I think I'll walk down to the beach today, it's always nice to see the ocean again.
