“Just one more lap.”
“I hate you.”
“And I love you. That’s why we’re doing this. Now, come on. Not even a whole lap now.”
“Did I mention I hate you?”
“Several times, actually.”
“How about loathe? Did I use despise?”
“Yes. Prior to detest and after abhor, before you went back to basic hate.”
“Doesn’t make it less true.”
“You do realize you’re talking, right?”
“What?”
“And that you’re running at the same time?”
“What’s your point?”
“That you couldn’t do that a month ago.”
“And?”
“It’s progressive.”
“I still hate you.”
“And I still love you. And... done.”
