Johnny No
Friends ©
By

Peter
had no friends, in fact he now was a stay at home person. Though everybody used
to call him John or Johnny, because he was always in the toilet, rushing to it
in fact. They even moved his desk to the corridor outside the toilet as a prank,
so he thanked them and stayed there for 3 years. He did have relationships, but
only with delivery drivers who dumped stuff by his desk. So he was a Concierge
without actually being a concierge. But he was happy enough because he was near
the toilet, he could dump like an Elephant, and smell just as bad. Bad diet and
a touch of CKD does that to you.
As the years
rolled by he knew more and more about the delivery drivers, as he had a giant
thermos on his desk ready to dispense a warming drink. So by the end of the 3rd
year he had more Christmas cards than the entire offer, but luckily he was a
dab hand with a Prit stick so he dabbed them and stuck them to the walls. It
looked better than Santa’s Grotto or any church. Everybody took photos and a
photographic magazine even awarded a prize. Johnny and his Cards the caption
read in the magazine, with Johnny’s email below. Though nobody knew his name was
Peter in reality.
Then Johhny’s
bladder got so bad, he’d have to wear nappies or have a funnel and a tube from
his desk to the toilet. So, Johnny spent his last penny and had to leave. The
company were generous, he could have sued the arse off them for the 3 years in
the corridor, the company secretary said, who was a bit leaky himself, so obviously
he was on Peter’s side. So Johhny got a nice pension, and a framed digital photo
of the Christmas Santa’s Grotto, and a very nice tablet which was waterproof so
he could use it in the toilet, just as Trump does.
So now
Johnny had no friends, but he still had his tablet, well several, as the doctors
kept on trying this and that in an attempt to fix him, so he had bottles of
tablets, as well as the digital tablet. Johnny got used to his new life, and he
had friends on the Internet too, while he continued dashing to the loo. One day
out of the blue he had an email from LindyLoo555@gmailpooh.com
He was
going to delete it in anger, but decided to answer. Lindy Loo was her real
name, she was American in Kansas were the mail servers were, and she did have
two red shoes which she clicked and she did like ballet too. Out spilled
everything, she’d seen the Santa photo in a photographic magazine while she was
at the dentists having her teeth fixed.
So
Johhny No Friends had found one true friend, which is all you need, and yes she
loved the Beatles too, she played them constantly on her Amazon Prime subscription.
Now email is a lovely thing, it is a letter that can be read over and over
again, you can print them off too and put them in a scrap book too. After a few
months, Peter and she called him Peter too, it was so much better than being
called Johnny, because he used always to be in the John, so Peter asked for a
photo. So LindyLoo555@gmailpooh.com
sent him a photo, she was tall and big, with horrid teeth and the stereo typical
black glasses that Koreans, or American born Koreans wear. But she did have
hair to kill for. So obviously Peter fell in love with her instantaneously. Because
he knew the real her, and she knew the knew him, so the feeling was mutual.
Though LindyLoo555@gmailpooh.com had lied, because she’d been hurt before, so sent
a picture of her best friend from next door. So the friendship continued, and LindyLoo555@gmailpooh.com decided she wanted to come and
visit Peter in Old Forge and Singing Anvil, so a quaintly named place after
all. So Peter said he knew somebody he ran an AirB&B so he could get her discount,
it was the bloke next door. Peter had
wondered why he was always carrying large supplies of toilet paper, and did he
have some disorder? But his neighbour laughed and said it was for his apartments.
So Peter helped let in all the supplies when delivery drivers came, so he was
offered discount if ever, if ever he needed an apartment. So that was that, and
this was now.
LindyLoo555@gmailpooh.com said that was great, as she licked
her dinner plate, that was her one bad habit, licking her plate like Oliver
Twist, as she read his email on her iPhone12. They’d know each other for 18
months now all told, and so they weren’t being bold. She’d fly in from Kansas and
land at Birmingham BHX, and Peter would be there to greet her, old Michael the
taxi driver would be ready and he’d drive steady. Now when LindyLoo555@gmailpooh.com arrived
Michael was in for a surprize, for the girl that landed was not like the photo,
in fact how could she be. It was her best friend from next door, the Kansas girl
was no witch, though she did wear red shoes. Michael drove her to the apartment
where Peter was waiting, he told Michael he must have picked up the wrong girl,
but it was the right girl, the perfectly right girl. You see Lindy Loo looked
like a Kpop star, but prettier if that is even possible. Peter was shocked but
she knew everything about him, and asked was he disappointed, and she’d leave
immediately if he felt she’s abused his friendship. You see she felt it best to
see if he wanted her for who she really was, and in emails he saw her as she
really was. Apart from the photo deception, you see a girl has to know that she’s
wanted for herself, not just her looks.
Peter replied,
it’s an ill wind that blows no good, and farted before dashing to the toilet. You
see Lindy Loo’s dad was a Proctologist, so why should nature get in the way of
friendship. She enjoyed a month visiting Old Forge and Singing Anvil, she also
revealed she was actually a dentist. Peter felt ten feet tall, and Lindy Loo
just knew, she’d break her broom, she’s never go back to Kansas. Besides her
dad had worked out how to fix Peter, as he knew he’d be joining the Korean
American family. A Break Wind family, was born, Lindy Loo always loved England,
and now part of it in the shape of Peter would be all her very own. And yes
they had four daughters and formed a Kpop band, you see Love is like the wind
it knows no boundaries, and the Kpop band was called The Saint Patricks because
that was the day they finally met.
