See Myself Out

Oh, my engagement ring?
It’s on my other hand.
In my other car.
It must have slipped my mind.
<Heh.>
I’m not really engaged, you know. Just kind of meta-engaged.
It’s an engagement of the mind, not the body, you know?

I guess I forgot to mention it.
It didn’t cross my mind.
I thought we were both engaged.
Weren’t we on a pre-married dating site?

I saw you and I couldn’t help myself.
I just figured the rules didn’t apply for people like us.
This? Between us? It was too important. I had to see how it would play out.

Oh, am I engaged? I didn’t realize!
