"Hello?"
"Hey, Dad."
"Who is this?"
"It's Peter, Dad. I swear, don't you recognize the voice of your own son?"
"Oh! Haha hello, Peter! How are you, my boy?"
"Oh, I'm ok. How 'bout you, Dad? Still losing at golf?"
"Now how could I possibly have any fun if I didn't play golf?"
"Oh, you play now? I thought you just wacked the ball for shits and giggles!"
(Laughter) "Peter, you ungrateful boy! How was I cursed with two pitiless wretches such as the two of you?"
"Gee, I don't know...Must have been the job, eh? (Trailing off into laughter)
(Laughter)
(Subsides) "Anyway, I wanted to call to say hi, and to thank you for the wedding present you sent me. It really means a lot to me, Dad."
"...What? I didn't send you a wedding present..."
"Exactly, Dad. Thanks for the wedding present."
"You're not even married!"
"Goodbye, Dad." (Hangs up)
"Peter?..." (Hangs up slowly)

Don't even bother asking what odd corner of my mind that popped out of. Comments are welcome, though, as always. Hope someone likes it Mr. Green

That's really sad. You gotta ponder if the son just didn't tell the dad or the dad truly forgot.

Either way, it hurts the heart.

Good job! :applause:

Shocked

...I just got comments from the admins! Both of them!

Yaay! *dances*

Thanks for the comments, everyone!

Yeah, as I said, I'm not sure where that came from. I was watching Road to Perdition, and this just kinda popped into my head. *shrug* Go figure, eh?

FOr the most part i find the whole this very realistic. Almost as if you took a slice out of someone's life. I like the quality of the way you used dialogue to protray the relationship between the two. From the begining it gives an inkling of nothing good coming of the conversation.

Yeah...I've been working on that sort of style for a while now. Giving as much detail as possible in the dialog, without really saying it...
