[skepticalities]

It's . . . always been kind of hard for me.

[onlyoneof]

... what?

[skepticalities]

No, um— I meant in general. With— nevermind. Anyway.

[onlyoneof]

No, we should talk about it.

[skepticalities]

I meant with me in general, not with— you or Olivia. In terms of . . . who I like.

[onlyoneof]

[not sure if he buys that]

[skepticalities]

[CATCHING THAT.]

My— we're not discussing my sexuality.

[onlyoneof]

That's not it.

[skepticalities]

That is it. What do you think it is?

[onlyoneof]

I thought you were saying it's hard for you that I have feelings for Olivia.

[skepticalities]

— no, no. You can— you can have feelings for more than one person, it's . . . no.

[onlyoneof]

... it had never happened to me before.

[skepticalities]

I'm . . . not really one to . . . it happens so rarely, you shouldn't limit yourself.

[I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING.]

— I'm not making sense, I'm sorry. It's— never exactly been a comfortable topic for me in general.

[WE WERE GONNA COOK, WEREN'T WE? LET'S. LET'S DO THAT]

I just... I want to talk about it.

[skepticalities]

. . .

[onlyoneof]

I think it's relevant.

[skepticalities]

[takes a deep breath, starting to gather ingredients.]

What do you want to talk about, exactly?

[onlyoneof]

... wanting to be with two people?

[skepticalities]

. . .

I don't— I'm not the best person to ask about this. Not really.

[onlyoneof]

Given you are directly involved, I can't think of anyone better to discuss it with.

[skepticalities]

I don't know.

[making the sauce.]

. . . I'm . . . interested in both men and women, but rarely. If ever. After a few years, I rationalized it to myself as— not wanting to limit myself to one group, just because it happened so rarely. I'd . . . like to say the same for this. I would. But I don't know. It's not the same, is it?
